    Re: Candy wanted to show off her new skin

    Thanks everyone.

    I love her, she's my favorite but don't tell the others.

    In addition to being very pretty she has an amazing personality.

    I know what you mean. Peaches is still pretty darn special to me too - gotta update her pictures. She and Candy are so much alike! I marvel over that every time I see Candy's picture! BTW, is Candy het anery?? I thought there was something else she and Peaches had in common other than being hypo but I couldn't remember for sure....

    Ok, not to derail thread, but I have a question. I'm still not familair with all the boa localities and morphs. I was told my boy is hypo, his tail resembles those colors, and he does seem to be changing, slowly, but his upper body is more grey? Will his whole color change eventually? To those beautiful mahogany colors? I know I have read/been told that boas colors changed as they age, but not sure if its that complete of a change.

    Candy is a hypo jungle. I don't believe she's het anery, but who knows what's hiding in genetics these days.

    I would love to see some updated pictures of Peaches.

    They change slowly as they grow. Candy used to be more gray and red when I got her, which is how she got the name Candy, she reminded me of a candy cane.

    This is what she looked like when I got her:


    About a 6 months later:


    And then the most recently:


    She is just a little over 2 years old. She turned 2 on August 18th. I love that I have her birthday.

    Ok, yeah his body color is similar. Her saddles are a little different color, and mine will be a year old in April. He is changing very slowly, not quite as fast as yours. Could be individual snakes differences?
