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.

My new purchase. Boa
Not looking for sympathy!!
Brief history. Started breeding boas in 2008. Was doing well and building up my collection with lipstick and coral as my main focus.
I had a couple heart attacks and had stents placed. Times were a bit rough at that time. Sold off half my collection. A year or so later, my mother in law died. My father in law is border line hoarder. Not garbage but junk. Lol. Had diabetes badly. So my wife moved in with him to help keep him safe and healthy.
Well, tgat was turning into a hassle. So, I had to go help with him. I kept my remaining boas as long as I could.
But, I had to sell off to move into father in laws house to help take care of him and his property. Rented my house out to my son who had just come home from 6 years in the marines.
I managed to hold a few males back because my son took care of them with me. They stayed at the house.
Recently. Had 3 massive heart attacks in one week! No bs! On the 3rd one I knew something was wrong. Er i went. I ended up having a triple bypass in Oct.
now I feel much better and am getting back into breeding. I’m after making the best corals I can. Stick around to see what I produce. My goal is high color lipstick coral albinos and sunglows. Both in regular pattern, jungles and super jungle pattern.
Here is my first adult female pick up. She’s coming from Josh Buchwald. She’s a lipstick jungle sunglow. She will be paired with a high coral male.
Now life is even better, getting back into what I truly love the most, keeping and breeding sweet sunglow boas.
Look for litter pics spring/summer of 2023.
Rich.

I don't keep B.c. or really know anything about them, but that's a lovely looking snake. Sounds like a fun project.

Thanks John. She’s originally from Adam Chelsea (spelling).
I’m excited like a 10 year old boy getting a go kart.

Looking great! It's amazing what modern medicine can do these days, and what a great way to celebrate having a new lease on life

Rich, glad to hear you survived all those heart attacks! But seriously man, maybe your body is trying to tell you something. Like maybe you need to take things easy and not prime yourself for another one.
I sure do hate to lose members PERMANENTLY!

It truly is, Helen!! I was surprised how fast you are out of the hospital. And they super glued my chest together. No stitches/staples.
She is a gorgeous animal. But as we all know, Adam breeds some great looking animals.

You are right Rich. But I’m just paying the piper from my early years. Although I ate too much fats as I got older and the smoking cigarettes didn’t help. I’m on a heart diet now. So hopefully I’ll stick around. At least long enough to get my grandson here into the hobby.
You might see him somewhere down the rd posting corals and lipsticks, Rich.
