I’m very enthusiastic to get into rosy boas. For a couple years now, I’ve had 1.2 San Diego Coastal Black & Blues from Larry at what was once American Desert Boas (what a great site!) and 1.1 “hypo” Anza Borrego Rosy Boa (Charina trivirgata myriolepis) scientific name as described by VMS herp. Now they have a super hypo? but I digress.

Both of these have jagged stripping but I have seen Anza Borrego rosys for sale that have solid stripes and with various scientific names. It’s really leaching the enthusiasm out of it if I can’t at the least inform my fellow rosy fans of what I really have. Ideally, I would love to throw money that I don’t really have at these hypos and anery borregos but I heard out that all the anery borrego’s were used to make snows by crossing with whitewaters and the hypos from different sources have different stripping patterns.
As for the San Diego Coastal Black & Blues are they Charina trivirgata roseofusca)? Can someone tell me what these are closely related to. I think they are a unicolor locale variant that was inbred to heighten the bluish color? Don’t see many of these advertised for sale or anything that looks quite as good as they do. They almost look anery. Are there any anery unicolors?

Sorry for the long post and random rants. I’m really in the dark here and I’ve read the forums. If anyone can point me to certain threads that would be great. I’m sure it’s all been discussed before.
