But she didn't give me any preparation for what to do when expanding to a new species! I started out just looking at the BCI morphs with strong reds in them -- I actually just emailed Vin Russo to inquire about current/upcoming availability for some of his Hypo Bloods -- but already my treacherous self is thinking about what another color boa that could complement that blood red! [facepalm]

    He has a line of pastels that might tickle your fancy [emoji846] You can get the red without it drowning out the pattern and contrast. You can also throw the pastel into morphs as well, something to look into.

    Definitely will keep Pastels in mind. Some of his Salmon boas were also looking mighty fine. Decisions, decisions!

    This is my hypo red pastel when she was in with my male motley, she just gave me some stunning babies. My sunglow has faded a bit but the coral on her sides is mental
    The img is great at making colours last , my hypo img has gone really black
    Here's a few pics of my hypo red pastel and sunglow https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...7044cf2468.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...bde2df9d2b.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...79d40b5e2d.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...3e84ab45ca.jpg

    Enablers, unite! :rofl: But you know Red, there are far worse "habits" you could have...just sayin'. ;)

    Hey, since you like red...how about a nice bull snake too? They're great pets, though a little more difficult to catch sitting still for photo ops...:snake:

    Richard, your hypo red pastel is just glorious! And Bogertophis, I do love the look of bull snakes a lot, especially their slightly hooded eyes. I remember first seeing them on the "Snake Discovery" Youtube channel and going "whoa, those are cool!"

    ... Honestly, I can't really think of a species of snake I don't like, haha. I remember I used to think hognoses and Kenyan sand boas were a little silly looking, but now I just think they're adorable.
