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.

Leucisitic Boas
Has there ever been or do you think there ever will be a leucisitic boa either c/b or w/c?I would love to see one if they do exist.That would be the coolest boa morph hands down.Expensive but worth it considering that its a possibility of it being one of a kind until proven otherwise. If there is any pics (if any available) Please post them because i would love to see one. Regards Bill McLeod

More specifically Redtail Boas.I saw the ones that Jerry Conway has for sale (solomon island or isabel island boas) but didnt get a good look at it to see if i like it or not.Also to me it doesnt seem to be a true leucisitic in the sense of the word.I always thought that lecisitic was pure white with no other colors present in the appearance.I could be wrong but thats what i read and heard anyway.Although they say theres 2 forms of albino so why not leucism. Regards Bill mcLeod

Bill,
to my knowledge there are not yet any leucistic morphs of Boa constrictor ssp. The only leucistic boa of any kind I am aware of was a solid white leucistic rainbow boa that was pictured in a book on Albinos and other morphs a couple years ago.
And yes, you are correct in that a leucistic animal should be solid white with normal colored eyes. The only variation of this I've seen may be where leucistic animals are crossed with albinos and a couple generations down the line you end up with solid white animals sporting pink/red eyes.
The animals that Jerry Conway has I thought were hypomelanistic, right? I remember seeing one of them in person and it is sweet. But I also remember seeing pictures in his Candoia article in Reptiles back in '98(I think) where they were labeled Hypomelanistic. Either way, they are beautiful animals.
