    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....

Finally!!!!

So yesterday was a long day at work and I was done with this week, that was until I found out what my Jungle boas were doing!

This is Tarzan and Jane(yeah their names are corny, but :raspberry )
Tarzan is top left, he has all the pattern, Jane, of course, is the other one.

I am really hoping that Jane will take, I have been waiting months for them to start mating. This is their first year so I am happy to see that they know what to do. I would love to see their babies with Jane's color and Tarzan's pattern. I will keep everyone updated on these two and the babies to follow. Thanks for looking.
 
Thank you, these are the pair that I was afraid UPS and the previous owner killed with crappy packing and shipping, when these two arrived I was almost afraid to open the box.

They strike again!! I hate that company! With a passion no doubt.

Good luck on the mating. I hope it all goes well for you and Her.
Funny you should say He has all the pattern, cuz My eye caught Her. LOL I have a thing for the clean and light look though, so go figure.

Nice, definately keep us posted on the progress.

Ciao,
Rick
 
She really has the color I love and the cleaness. I understand where you are coming from. Thanks for the comments.
 
Update

Well this is her now, I did not use the flash, she is soooo dark:

She has trouble bending this part of her body, she tried when I took the picture but could not, I had to move the bucket to give her a bit more space to move around. With flash:

Staying warm, with flash:

I am so excited over this pair of boas, I do hope the babies are as beautiful as the female. I have seen boas darken up before, but this was an astounding change. The first picture of her in this thread shows her natural color perfectly.
 
Nice job. I seem to recall reading, (in one of these books) that darkening is a good sign. Something about warmth absorbtion, as you probably already know.
She still looks great though. Can't wait to see what comes of it. :D

You should have seen her, I woke up one morning first wondering how she got inside my house and there Laura was, hovering over my snakes!! I saw she had my female upside down with some tiny wires inside the boa. She told me she had already picked out the best ones and they were marked, what a pain!! They are now flawed snakes so she only gets those two! :raspberry
