    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Baby SNOW Rosy Boas born this morning!

These babies were very shy as you can see in the first pic here, but they eventually came out of their shells.

Here are some comparison pics. The first three pics are morph comparison shots consisting of a normal, an Anery, an Amel, and a Snow (all are 2005 babies). The last pic is a comparison shot of an Amel with a Snow.

Once again...BEAUTIFUL! I'm so jealous...you have lovely snakes. =D

But...I didn't know they gave live birth...*puts the dunce hat on*
 
James, you have some fantastic babies! Just incredible!

I'll be calling you soon....just have to finish getting the kids squared away with school. Hopefully we get the shopping done today.

Congratulations!!!!!!
 
Brittany, there is no need to wear a dunce cap. There are basically two types of Boids: (Boas and Pythons). Boas, for the most part, are new World animals (the Americas), and they generally give birth to live young, much like Garter Snakes and Vipers. On the other hand, Pythons for the most part, are old world animals (Australia, Asia, Africa), and they lay eggs in the same way that Colubrids do.

A few day late but thats okay. Great looking snows! I cannot wait to get a couple of Rosy's from you.
 
Thanks to everyone for the nice thoughts! Michael, it was nice chatting with you. I have selected a nice dark pair of the Whitewaters for you. I look forward to seeing you, Wes, and Laura at the show.

Shelly, are you going to go to the show in Anaheim on the 10th and the 11th?

Jim, it was nice talking with you. (I have your guys picked out as well).

Oh how I wish I was! Not in the cards this year....got Chicago on my schedule, though. I'll probably try to visit a different "big" show every year.
 
Hey Shelly!

If you're going to Chicago NARBC we have got to meet up! I'll be there early Friday evening and staying at the Holiday that the show is in!

Kare,

Do to unforeseen problems I am not going to be able to make it to Chicago after all :unhappy: I would have loved to have gone and it would have been great to meet you. Hopefully the opportunity comes along sometime in the future!
 
WOW! Congratulations, James! They're absolutely beautiful. You know I'm going to be bugging you in the future for some snow babies, right? (Moving into a new house with a basement all to myself at the end of this year. In my mind, that means "ROOM FOR ROSIES!" Lol.) ;)
