Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Looks coral to me. If its not coral the breeder may have had some pastel in his albinos / hets.

First, ALL Boas are special. But he looks like a Coral Albino to me too.
Good looking boy.

Nothing special there, so you might as well send it my way!
And by the way Albino+Pastel = Coral. An Albino Boa with Pastel means its a Coral Albino.

I disagree. There is a difference, however subtle it may be. Corals have a somewhat "marble-ish" type of look to their color along the sides, and Pastel albinos are simply flushed with color all over the sides. Seeing them side by side helps to distinguish the differences.
Pete Kahl had Corals appear randomly in an albino litter, quite some time before Jeff Ronne came out with the Pastel Boa. So the ties just don't add up IMHO.
But they are both nice albinos regardless.

I have a Female Pastel het Alb. and was told by Tim Koppenhofer of (Special K Reptiles) that the Pastel gene in my het will make Corals off of the first breeding to a het Alb. or an actual Albino. I was stating what i was told, and thats why i don't like co-signing anything just to be sure im not wrong. O'well everybodys wrong once and a while.

I wasn't getting on you or anything. Mine is just an opinion, based on what I know and have learned. I was just sharing it.
Differences in opinion is how we learn new things. LOL

Good luck on those pairings. The DH Sunglow sounds like it should throw some really nice offspring if paired with that guy. The Het albino too.
I had a litter sired by a Coral produced by Rich Ihle. I held back two babies. 1.0 Coral, and 0.1 High contrast. (she's trying to coral a little bit LOL) BUT, my point is this. I sold some babies that looked pretty much just a nice normal albino. Now they are a year, and several have blossomed with the coral trait. One that is turning out AMAZING. Soooo, pick your keepers carefully. LOL
Good luck!
Rick
