    Cool should i get this Coral Albino Boa?

    I got 24 Snakes.
    10 Ball pythons, 7 Cornsnakes, 2 Milksnakes, 1 Kingsnake, 2 Hognose, 2 Bloods.
    1st snake a corn, in 2005.
    Started to keep Ball Python in 2008.
    Added a Blood & Hognose in 2010.
    Should i add This Boa in my collection? I have google & done reading alot. A few problem that, I would face is a bigger tub when they grow bigger. And Bigger food.



    What are your thoughts?

    I'm not so sure that's a coral. I thought they had a LOT more pink on them, especially around the head.

    That's a pretty snake, no mistake, and would make a fine addition.
    I may not be very smart, but what if I am?

    Yes Colombian BCI's are the best, and isn't your blood going to require big food?

    Both of my bloods are still under 150-grams, every week giving them 2 mice.
    thinking of the future, as the blood will need rats too, so does the boa. And most of my ball pythons are on rats already. I got a colony going.. so concerning about food is check. Thanks again..

    I think that some grow pink as they age, but I agree that it hasnt even started and I think it should have by now.

    Can anyone answer this, does the line coral, even if two pink parents have babys, can some of the babys stay the normal albino color?

    That is a very nice albino though.

    Thats far from a Coral Albino and it isnt a Salmon Albino (Sunglow) either! Looks like a below average Kahl Albino to me!
