    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....

OK, I'm a moron. LOL.

The choices are listed now.
 
The choice will end up being the future mate for this one that I already have.

Actually, they are all Nics.
Those are males that will be used in a breeding project with the female I already have. These are unrelated to the female which is a nice plus.
 
That's the one I am leaning towards. Of course he is also the most expensive one but you get what you pay for. LOL.
 
B looks like it has the best colors. I think, if I rember A & D are the cleanest( less speckles). Have fun.

Hehe..isn't that always the case :D
 
Steve. Why arent you breeding pure Bluefield's? They are so gorgeous and I don't see anyone selling them...
 
I will be.
The one I have is a Bluefields from Tremper and the ones in the poll are the available Bluefields that Ron has left.

Sorry man. Didnt realize those were all Bluefieds also. Love em!
 
"A" gets my vote.

"B" is flashier (is that a real word) now, but will most likely end up pretty dark.
A is very clean and light and looks like it will be a beautiful adult.

If your purchase is ultimately for breeding, I think A is the best overall choice.

I say when it comes to Boas, go with what Mike recommends!! :)
 
I agree with Mike. I personally like choice "A" because he is clean and has a lighter coloration which will reflect in the offspring. I think that choice "A" will give you better looking babies.
 
OK. B and C are out since they do not meet what I am looking for as far as a breeding pair. Plus I am afraid the colors will darken and they don't look similiar to my girl which is also what will be the determining factor in what I choose.

I am looking for ones without the typical circleback nic pattern and matches the saddles on the female I currently have.

That leaves A and D.
Now, A is pictured in it's light phase while D is in it's dark phase.

The one I bought was dark in the pics but in person she is very light and colorful. Ron actually takes worse pics then me. LOL. :rofl:

So.......I think D will be the one.
