Also if u breed an anery to her first u'll also have ur hypo answer in the same clutch. If 50% of them have the hourglasses and known hypo colorings. If she isnt a ghost then Id love to see one of her ghost offspring. In fact keep me in touch about this as I have been looking for a ghost even slightly as pretty as the one that showed up to me DOA.

Oh and the reason im so into this thread is because ghost boas are hands down my favorite herp of all time.

You're right, I wasn't thinking with the Anery breeding. That's a big duuuuuh. I was just too focused on Anery here.

I'm not super worried about what she is other then for breeding purposes. I bought her because she's pretty. I can't say I've ever seen anything like her.

Try a different background, like black, or add some fake floral greens, maybe that will balance the color out better. (if it's a camera thing)

Did a little shed maybe stick to her head? Just has that rough look to it.

I'll work on getting something black to place her on for photos this week. Raining today so poster paper is out of the question.

Here head does feel rough, but I'm not sure if it's abnormal scales or a stuck shed. Their are no shed edges visible. I'll give her another bath and watch it.

Ok, so I think the issue is the term IVORY, because the only time I ever saw Ivory used was in describing high white selective bred (J. Ronne) Ivory Aneries, so when I see Ivory, I think of a visual anery. I believe you have a grasp of it here with the sentances above, it's a beautiful pastel (ivory line) hypo het anery. It deff. looks like a hypo. I know this was already mentioned, but just saying it again: If you breed to a normal, you'll get 1/2 hypos and 1/2 normals which is the easiest way to prove the hypo part, if bred to another hypo, you should get 75% poss super hypos and 25% normals. (that 75% is actually 25% supers and 50% hypos, but since there's no for sure way to tell the supers from the normal hypos hense 'poss super hypo').

Anery boas should not be showing pinks, oranges or reds. Some tans show up as they age because of the yellow pigment. I wish I had a better pic to share, but this is my young anery. He never has pinks on his sides, where it would be pink it is just white. I need to get newer pics of him, he's grown since these were taken


he looks a little tan in this pic due to lighting


Anyways, she's a pretty gal and I'm still looking forward to more pics.

She's a good looking hypo. From the eyes, she's probably het for something. It sounds like she's from an anery breeding, so my guess is DH ghost.

There's a misconception that "Ivory" means any pastel anery. In fact, it can only be called an Ivory if it came from Jeff Ronne's Ivory line.

Here's an Ivory anery from Jeff for reference:

That is one heck of an Ivory. Yours?

He belongs to my roommate, but at least I get to look at him every day
