    Multiple Rescue
    Greetings All, so a very good friend and myself just pulled off a rescue of 4 RTB's. One is an Albino and I think the other 3 are normals. Can someone help with ID for me. I have a lot of rehab work with them. Three of them look to be malnourished and one not too bad. They will need a full parasite treatment. I will keep updating progress regularly on this post. Pics attached. Din' t forget to advise on what morphs if any, they are. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...5417665321.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...baa4549957.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...05482be460.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...2de6ad065e.jpg

    Can't advise you on their genetics, but glad you're able to be helping them...looks like you'll have your hands full, with 4 of them.

    Aww poor babies. Deff need some good care. Don't push them too fast with food since they are emaciated, don't want them to start on the regurg trail. May want to dust their first few feedings with some nutribac just in case.
    Albino (most likely kahl/original strain) and 3 normals, the second photo has the CBLT (circle back-ladder tail) pattern which is a normal variation, usually seen most often in central american localities.
    Good luck with them!

    I agree with the post above. Looks like an albino and 3 normals, all BCI (BI). The third pic doesn't look as bad in terms of weight, but it is hard to tell in photos.

    Healthy boas should be the shape of a loaf of bread. If you can see their spine or they are triangle shaped, then they are underweight. I agree with the nutribac and feeding them every 10-14 days with feeders that are their girth. Good luck rehabbing them.. Boas are great to work with.

    Thank you to both of you. I reckon I will have them in good shape by the end of the year. My own female is a rescue that had a serious RI, stuck sheds and malnourished. Do you want to see a pic of how she looks today.

    Omg poor babies. :( The first two look pretty emaciated, and the other two just a little underweight. All but the albino are indeed normals.


    Good luck with their recovery! Take is slow and hopefully they'll put on weight quick once they're free of parasites.

    I am very worried about the Albino. I will get some weight put on them and then get them sexed. I am looking at keeping a pair of them, with the Albino being one half of the pair.
