    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....

Some advise please!

A friend of mine is wanting to trade me three stripe line albino's all 2004's
for my Arabesque het albino I got from pete kahl. She's a 2003 and alittle over 3 feet long. I just got her 8 days ago and paid a pretty penny for her. She should breed late next season. Is this a fair trade or should I wait and breed her myself.
 
Personally I think you should keep the het. Its a female and not far from breeding size. Im not 100% sure how much stripe line albinos go for but boas throw nice clutches and you will get quite a few babies out of a decent sized female. If I were you Id stick with the boa. Well hoep you make the right decision for you. Good Luck. =^_^=
 
I agree with Jessica. Some other things to ponder though are: do you have a male to go along with your female? Or will breeding arabesque hetero albinos will entail breeding your female to a normal and then go from there. I guess it depends if you want to do it just for personal preference for the beauty of the arabesque (very valid) or if you want a faster return on your investment (valid also).

Regards.
 
I bought her to breed to a double het sunglow male. I know of only 4 sunglow arabesque boas at the moment. And I just wanted to be up on the game. And I think arabesque boas are the best besides motley's in my opinion.
 
If that's the case I absolutely agree with Jessica. You are better of keeping her.

Regards.
 
Thanks for the advise I appreciate it. I think i'll keep her and breed her later next year. Also has anyone ever seen a arabesque anery just wondering. Thanks alot Daniel.
