Hey all, i just came home from my first ever reptile show with my first ever red tail boa. Before i picked up Roxy(still deciding on whether or not i like the name) i already had a milksnake and a ball python. I would like to let you guys know i have done my research so i know what im getting in to, Roxy is a BCI and her parents were a jungle and a sunglow. I was told by the breeder she would produce albinos if bred with a het albino of the sharp line. They also had the parents on display and the Jungle had a crazy stripe down its entire back. I am very familiar with ball python morphs and genetics, but still learning with boas. Is she considered Hypo? one of her siblings was a really light brown with very little speckling, and i was tempted to get her, but i loved the "irregular" pattern of the red spots on roxy's tail, and she was the only one to have that. Either way i got her for $50 so i think i got a decent price?
She is currently living in a 38"x18"x18" 40 gallon breeder tank that is fully automated (ive got everything on timers) with her temps and humidity perfect. I will be ordering an AP T-13 with the works when the time comes, any advice or feedback would be great!
I uploaded some picks to Imgur here: http://imgur.com/a/HATRk
I tried to get her in some natural sunlight.
