    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

stripe?

actually no. my friend Vince Perez did. but i will be helping to get rid of the other 22 siblings.

looking around (googling) i found mention of many fully striped boas, mostly salmons, but i couldnt find any pictures. how rare is a boa with that much striping and what would you say it is worth, roughly?

Considering it's not het, and just a normal, I'd be willing to pay $200. But that's just me. Whatever the market will bear is what they're worth.
 
chad, that animal along with it siblings could be worth quite a bit of money to the right people. i would hold on to the entire clutch. and take offers on them. do not be so hastey to move them though if you see high dollar amounts be patient. because of the striping on the siblings and abbarancies these could be a new line of genetic stripes which would differ from the khal line of stripes. but unless it is proven genetic you can not call it a proven morph just gamble that it is because of the striping and abbarancies in the sibs... being unproven is going to be the only down side from people making offers
 
thanks robin. were actually just trying to get rid of most of the siblings...and cheap too... last i heard he was talking about a ten lot for 200 plus shipping...thats 20 bucks a snake. as far as the nicest ones there are still about 5 left with substantial striping on the tail (and some body striping and ive already got a nice pair and he of course kept the two best. as far as proving it genetic that will be years down the road. man i sure do like how fast geckos are ready to breed....lol. if it was a gecko i could have it proven in about two years.

funny thing is the stripe eats the most. hes getting big...if i still had a digicam id snap a few pictures but worry not for i am going to be buying one soon enough.
 
Good deal. Good luck with those guys. Should be fun.
Are both the parents CB normals? If they or one was imported, with any striping, or are imported siblings from something of that sort, it could be genetic. But 2 normal boas, from all normal parents, wont be making anything genetic.
 
Hey Chad,

Have your friend send me an email about those snakes. I've seen a few full stripers on kingsnake. I think theres two right now. One full stripe salmon and 1 full stripe normal het for albino. From what the ad says it seems to be genetic. One of the litter had 4 full strip babies I believe. The full stripe het albino was going for 2000.

Thats different.
The whole het albino aspect adds a different dimension. An albino with full body striping would be a very lucrative specimen.
 
siblings at 20 bucks a pop when you buy ten isnt a bad deal. sure its not het for albino and its not a salmon but its a nice stripe and the idea is cross it into salmons and albinos...eventually. if anyone is interested in a 10 lot let me know. PM me or email me though please.
