Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them.

    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....

What type of Snake is this?

If your intro to the hobby is any indication(which it generally is) then its going to most likely a short lived venture.:shootfoot

This is not a profit game,many get into it seeking fortunes and their success has always been limited.

Nobody here is claiming to be greater or more knowledgeable than you. You know more about the snake you have than any of us do. Even though it has been in your possession for only a short time, it has spent no time in any of our collections. Even with that being true, you don't know a whole lot more about this snake than the rest of us. You responded to the thread starter by saying that you were pretty sure it was an Aztec. You bought it and immediately put it up for sale as an Aztec. You were offered advice about slowing it down a bit. You responded saying that you think it is a Super Aztec. You dismissed anyone who questioned your ad and posts here by linking pictures of Aztecs and referring to the Potts. Have you contacted the Potts to see what they think? Have you asked them to come here? If not, may I ask why? If you have asked them, and they decline to post, did they offer a reason?

Nobody is against you.

Most are trying to help not only you, but the potential buyer.

I feel that by everyone involved being informed, in the future the progeny of this snake will be marketed in the most accurate way possible. Inaccuracy will lead to increasing inaccuracy generations down the road.

The most accurate way to describe the boa in question is to call it a generic boa constrictor. Not only are the genetics unproven, but locality and ssp are in question. Breeding trials will not prove locale, but will ultimately prove or disprove the heritability of the trait. For some, that will be enough to invest the same way people bought salmons with their unknown background. It is an odd looking snake that has the potential to prove to be something great. Unfortunately, the attention it has gotten here may put a bad taste in the mouths of those who might have had an interest in it.
 
Hello Everyone
The snake has a new home with a gentleman who has 2 Aztecs and 1 Hytec.He feels the snake is not an Aztec but really has great potential in a breeding program due to its color and pattern.
