She is pretty April!
*adding hog isle boas to my want list*
Re: Photoshoot with Diva (hogg island boa)
Thank you!
She's honestly the nicest looking hogg island boa I've ever seen. I didn't even like them until I saw her! I need to find a male that's as good as she is.
Re: Photoshoot with Diva (hogg island boa)
Wow! Do all boas have higher contrast in color on their tails? Diva's a big lovely gal! And in an completely unrelated note, I love your shirt too. :D
Re: Photoshoot with Diva (hogg island boa)
Yes, well they call them 'red tail boas' for a reason. :) She has an exceptional tail though, very clear colors, and wonderful rich orange. That's why I fell in love with her.
And thanks, I just got that shirt. :)

For some reason I had it in my head that the red tail boa term was specific to Columbians, lol. I'm a spaz, but I'm not real familiar with boas obviously. :oops:
Re: Photoshoot with Diva (hogg island boa)
Actually, colombians have the dullest red tail of them all! Except maybe nicaraguans and a few unusual subspecies..
Colombians are BCI boas (boa constrictor imperator)
Red tails like surinames, guyanans, and peruvians are BCC (boa constrictor constrictor) They are known as TRUE red tails because they keep the cherry red tail into adulthood unlike colombians.

Re: Photoshoot with Diva (hogg island boa)
Beautiful snake, Shelby! Is she higher orange than others or is that a more common shade for HIBs?????? I'm looking at one and he is a more sandy gray so I'm not sure what he'll be as an adult. Still learning here. :oops:
Re: Photoshoot with Diva (hogg island boa)
Huh, cool! Thanks, Shelby. :) I need to do more google image searches, lol!
