    Still extremely light at three and a half

    I took Figment out for some pictures yesterday. Still going through them all, but she's looking good!

    Figment made me want to get a boa. She is just so beautiful and seems like such a character! I love all of her pictures so much!

    Aww thanks I'm always really bad at finding my threads again (just always too busy) so I don't think I had ever thanked you before! She is a special little boa (well, kinda big boa).

    Looks great Shann!

    I really like how the colors on your boa are so different from the ones my guy. Mine has a lot of the brown/red saddles and some pinks.

    Your's has the inky blacks and cream colors. I guess that's the beauty of boas, the natural variation in color. I'm not really into morphs myself, so I appreciate the natural colors a whole bunch.

    (Nothing against morphs though)

    You've got a really neat boa there.

    I will say, if you love boas, carpet pythons are HIGHLY recommended! I can't pick a favorite which is good, but I think you'd enjoy one.

    Figment is consistently beautiful. Keep up the good work!

    Hope you are back to 100% too.

    Your boa is absolutely gorgeous! Probably one of the best looking I've ever seen! Just a question, I'm not good with boa morphs but is this girl a certain morph or is she like a wild type? I've seen a few pictures of her full length and I love her color. If I don't get a retic this week, I'll probably pick up a boa at the next reptile show.

    Not a morph. She is a beautiful example of a Colombian BCI. There is a lot of variation in "common boas" and without specific locality info you can never be 100% certain as to what may be in the mix.

    Just to show the differences. Here is my Barranquilla, Colombian boa.

    Notice how he lacks the blacks that Figment has.


    I'm a huge fan of Shann's boa and love the coloring.

    I'm only posting my photo for an example.



    Wow,,, a retic or a boa?? That is a tough choice. I love, LOVE boas, but I'm very interested in SD retics. The mainlands and dwarf versions are just too large for me to enjoy.

    Keep us posted.

    Wow, that's a beautiful boa! Yes, I've always loved boas. I've been wanting a Colombian or Hog Island for a few years now but then I started reading about retics and came across the tiger morph and was instantly hooked! I'm having the worst time deciding which to get. Ultimately, it depends upon the extra money I have leftover this week after I buy my new bedroom set and if not, I'll probably have to wait until next season. I really want to get this high percentage dwarf tiger or possibly an SD Tiger if I'm lucky. These beautiful boas are making me think again though

    I'm by no means a morph guy, but the Tiger retic is probably my favorite pattern of all snakes.

    I do hear and have read that mainland tiger retics get to be some of the largest out there. Just a thought if you want something manageable.

    If you want some size but in a more manageable package, BCC or female BCI like Figment might be for you.

    I have to keep this thread "Figment friendly" LOL! I don't want to change the whole topic.
