    Do all boas darken with age?

    I’m about to purchase a Suriname but I was wondering if all of them turn this dark as they get older?

    I just don’t care for the dirtiness look to it. I’m trying to decide on whether I should get this baby or not but I don’t want to get him if he will end up looking like that. If I saw pics of the parents would that be enough to know?

    I’ve not seen a Suriname with that much speckling on the sides, a lot clean up with age but get a few speckles in the saddles, normally a good look at the parents can give a clearer picture on how they may look as an adult, but all are so different
    That little one is really stunning by the way, again really love the high peeks on the saddles
