    Central American Boas?

    So I have this one normal adult male Central American BCI. From a investment breeder's standpoint, what options do I have? I'm not extremely familiar with what CA morphs are out there, and I'm not sure what really to think about mixing him with another locality.

    Any feedback is appreciated.

    I'm not too familiar with CA Boa morphs, but you can speak to Tom Burke.
    Here is his site: http://www.burkereptiles.com/gallery/albums.php

    I know their are Hypos, Ghosts, Aneries, T+ and a few others.

    I agree, don't mix Colombian with CA Boas. The good thing is, these morphs occur naturally in CA boas. That's one of the big pluses they have as well as their small size. CA Boas at one time were marketed as the BP's of the Boa world because of all their morph potential and small size.

    Thanks to both of you for the info... and yeah I really don't want to mix him with another BCI locale.

    Re: Central American Boas?

    I like the CA localities but some can still reach 6'+. If I'm gonna get a dwarf boa, I'm gonna get something that won't get over 4-5' like mainland hondos or crawl cays

    Too many boas to list and a few balls as well
