    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....

Hi,
I need a little bit help.
We´ve bought a Group of 2,1 Boa c.longicauda.
But the owner didn´t know the bloodline.
She have bought the Longtails in the US by Gladesherp.

So, help me please :)

Hello Philip,
Very nice longicaudas did you bought there!
But i have already said that to you, yesterday...
Good luck with them!
 
I don't think anybody will be able to tell you whose stock they are from by looking.
Glades may have been able to tell the original buyer that info at the time of purchase, but that would have been the time to ask.
 
Glades Herp didn´t tekk her, because "He must protect his sources..."

I can´t understand this...

Do you like these Longicaudas?
 
A lot of dealers won't name names, lol...it carries an implied risk that you will cut out the middle man. The other part is that sometimes the breeder won't want to be named - ie they wholesale a bunch of babies to a dealer, who then sells them for cheaper than the breeder himself. If the dealer told people that these were Breeder ABC's animals, then it could potentially draw business away from the breeder (even though the wholesale lots might be of less desirable color/pattern/quality).

I do like longicauda...have a pair myself. When I get home tomorrow, I'll take a look for pics. My male is average, the female (I think) is much nicer.
 
Thanks for your answere.
I didn´t know that there is such a heavy market with boas in the US.

I´m very interested in your Photos.
Do you know your bloodline?
How big an heavy are they an how old are they?
 
I am also interested in pictures from your longtails...can you make pics with something everybody knows, sth. like a din A4 paper to have a comparisen how big they are...
I´m waiting for pics...
 
I'll be posting pics from some I already have available. Not a good day for new ones :(
 
Ok, I am happy you´ll post some...*smile*
If they are newer or older is unimportant ...I like logtaileds very much so I always want tosee new variants of them...
 
a couple more of the female (I thought I had some better shots of the male, but I can't find them)
