Info on some snake species

[xFenrir]

Thank you for all of the great info! The reason I asked about the color they are as babies is because I found this place (UAN Constrictors) and on their Facebook page they have a photo album with all of their available snakes with type and cost as the description(https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?...3745247&type=3). A lot of them are the silverish color with the brown patterning (not the golden brown/tan) but they are still labeled jungles, and some are labeled normals, even though they are all the same colors. Unless they are just carrying the Jungle gene, I can't figure out the difference it between them. Any thoughts?

Normals will definitely darken up, although how much they do is different for each one. Jungles will darken, but they shouldn't "brown out" like normals. The Jungle gene is a co-dominant gene so there should be no hets (all Jungles will be visual morphs). It's a very variable morph and yes, a lot of Jungles look like very nice normals as babies, but the saddles on a Jungle will have more of a butterfly shape to them (but not all Jungles have actual saddles), have a more aberrant pattern and they will keep their nice rich colors into adulthood. Most of them look almost like Pastels with crazy patterns.

Your best bet for getting the Jungle you want is to work with a reputable breeder. They should be able to give you a selection of boas that will be what you're looking for, based on their lineages. I'm not super familiar with the Jungle morph though, hopefully someone more familiar with them, like Daybreaker or Evenstar, comes back and can fill in more of my limited knowledge.
