    Thanks el ziggy,
    they are mad colours on her sides,her mum and is a 5ft Central American Hypo which seem to help them keep there colour really well and dad was a 3rd generation dwarf albino at 4ft and 8years old ,so she should stay small

    Your little beauty is 2 1/2 now! Wow. She looks amazing.

    How much does she weigh now? She seems to be pretty handleable and to have a great personality. Is that the case? I've heard, sunglows in general are pretty laid back. Any truth to that?

    Are some morphs more prone to aggression? Sorry, off topic, but curious.

    Yes she has a great personality, because she’s really bright and so laid back she one of the few I get for the grandkids to see and hold , they can’t understand why she’s that colour
    She weighed 1352g last month when I weighed her on 17th July .she’s on small rats every two weeks, but at the glass for food after a week.shes such a pig
    They reckon ca varieties can be more aggressive, my img parents was and I can vouch what a grump she was for the first year and half , I never thought I’d win her round but perseverance with the hook training definitely paid off, I still stroke her every day .she don’t even squirm away and hardly ever moves now when I do it, my large albino Kahlos when I stroke him he never even flinches I Literally have to shake him sometimes as I think he’s dead, he’s so chilled

    Re: My sunglow boa
    WOW! Stunner!

    Sunglow was my first choice when I was looking at a BCI. However, I have zero regrets with Behira; AKA, BEST SNAKE EVER!

    Also, now that I have Yafe (Albino Carpet), and I've had Shayna for 6 years (Albino BP), I am kind of glad I went with something different.

    Regardless, Sunglow's rock and he is a great example! Nice Rich!

    Absolutely love this snake, in fact this thread as well as another members motivated me on my recent purchase. That and seeing pictures over the years. Can’t get over the colors. Although mine isn’t a Sunglow he will have the coral albino so be interesting to see his progression. I had always wanted an Albino and any doubts I had were laid to rest after seeing your stunning example.
    The coraling as you calll it on the sides is just amazing. Really adds to her pattern and catches the eye. She is really bright and vibrant, beautiful.
    Thank you for sharing, I really enjoy seeing her.

    Thank you,she's over 4 yrs old now and has happened more as she ages, there was none when she was younger, it's just a really high coraling on her sides that some lines of boas get, I really like it, normally classed as coral or lipstick line, these tend to get this alot as they have been line bred over a fair few years to intensify it
