Unfortunately the place closed down right after I purchased her, so I never did get to see the parents like I had planned, or get any further information about them. But all of her siblings I have seen since still have the same light coloring that she has. I personally am a huge fan of normals for the same reasons as Gio. There is so much variety and I think boas have such a striking look to them. I'm not much of a morph person, myself, and plan on mostly getting different localities of BCC and BCI in the near future.

I can't say enough good things about boas. They generally have great personalities and stay a much more manageable size than the giants. They typically are docile, eat well, are willing to be handled, and are typically active and fun to watch at night. Boas are easily my favorite reptile.
Well said!

It's funny how I want what I don't have. I adore my snake, and that's not because he's mine but because I love his pattern and look. I was drawn to his line and really never wanted anything else other than an Iquitos, Peruvian BCC or a Brazilian BCC. But when it came to a BCI, the Rentfro line of Colombians was it.

HOWEVER,,,,, I see a nice light, cream boa with the inky blacks and I go nuts.

That's boas!!

Figment looks great! Love her.
