On the front page of BlumenBoas.com is a picture of the hypo eclipse born this year. Gorgeous little thing

I still like their sugar pastels better though. I've been hoping they post some for sale soon.

They're just more El Salvadorian and Colombian mutts, the Leopard gene just happens to have a strong appearance with the Motley additive.

They are El Salvadorian X Colombian Motley boas. I don't know how to explain it more than that.

Leopard is a morph naturally occurring in El Salvadorian animals.

Chris Gilbert crossed them into Colombian Motleys. Leopard Colombian Motleys are just intensely black or colored because of the combination of the pattern mutations.

I don't believe there is that much more to actually explain, but I don't know genetics well either. I do think there is a difference between a first of it's kind genetic mutation & the combination of localities or known genetics to produce a new morph. I believe the "next best thing" all comes down to personal opinion anyway, but just to be safe we could do a test. Only because I care enough about you guys I'll take on the responsibility of deciding what is best, just send me 1 of each & I'll let everyone know.

Diem. We are dealing with a boa rookie. We all have been their. If we can't explain the way she needs then can we point her in a better direction?

Just an update. The sterling is holding strong. Any new ideas out there?
