I appreciate your concern, but I'm well aware of the two "subspecies" of Sanzinia. (By the way, Vences et al restored Acrantophis and Sanzinia back in 2001, so Boa is no longer the correct genera.) All of my animals are "S. m. madagascarensis". (Vences et a1, 2010 found that the two clads of Sanzinia presently considered subspecies are actually more distantly related than the two "species" of Acrantophis). Again, thank you for the input.
What I am interested in is how the green coloration might be carried. Two of my animals are very green and not greenish like most S.m. madagascarensis I've encountered. Any idea is the green dom/res, multi allelic, or co-dom. If I ever figure out how to post photos, I'll put some up. There are photos of them on moreliapythons.com.
