Question Firebelly?

I ran across an ad this morning that had "Firebelly Redtail" as the discription. I'm curious if anyone's heard of this or better yet has a picture? Not really looking to buy (so didn't want to bug the seller) just curious as I've never heard of this before.

The term Firebelly, I believe was first used by Dennis Sargent and describes a bloodline/locality of Honduran Boas that exhibit bright red/orange ventrals.

I think i might have a firebelly either that or something else, i have a female 100% het for albino bci kahl line, i noticed all the belly scales turned a red orange color, after i got it from the seller.I purchased it from www.topnotchboas.com go to the collection section then to sold boas to see a pic of my het female.Now keep in mind this pic is old, it shows some of the coloring but shes got WAY MORE color now on her belly, kinda looks like a pumpkin lol.

if you are talking about one stop pet shop

I recently completed a deal with johnathan for what he was calling a mainland honduran firebelly he was honest and forthcoming about not haveing owned the snakes long and he never mentioned or implied it to be of the island locality. i purchased the snake on monday and recieved it on tuesday she was packeged and shipped correctly. although she is overly nippy she shed for me on wed and i was instantly satisfied overall a great deal and a great shopping experience
i hope this helps

the true fire bellies are from rotan... they are killer a few people have them out there... i believe rotan is an island of of honduras and they get VERY red, much more so than the mainland counterparts
