Mainely Boas
A big night

Big night for Mainely Boas. Until tonight, all the Sterlings in the world were produced by a single female, and three different males.

Tonight, a possible het female, bred by a possible het male, produced a healthy litter of 17 babies, 2 slugs, no stills. And 5 of those 17 are Sterling Patternless Boas. This was day 107 from her POS.

The ratio of Sterlings to non-Sterlings in this litter once again supports my belief that this is a simple recessive gene. I still have a Sterling x Sterling litter due on June 3, then my season will be over.

Here's a peek:

Amazing! I am impressed with your litter. I hope you can prove out the sterling gene as being a simple recessive too. That would be wonderful as I hope to move into similar projects in the coming years.

Oh my gosh! You've been working on that project for what, 4 years? I couldn't be happier for your success and achievement

They are absolutely beautiful!

Congrads Ken, not only on the litter but the success of the whole project in general the last few years. Without doubt the Sterlings are one of the best looking "more recent morphs" I seen. Keeping my fingers crossed for you with that last litter.
