As you all can tell, I do not think in the Box....I just Love to think outside the BOX !!

I am just stating ideas here...but I have been concerned with why so little is really known or understood about boa genetics...
It seems people understand Corns, and Balls and other Pythons...but boa people relate all this knowlege in a totally different way.

It gets very confusing....my question is why?

Let me say this this way....

The Boa Morph people....seem to be the ones having trouble here...

Locales specific...are not in question....
but morphs are...
then we seperate locales within morphs??....makes me wonder why....I can't see breeding a Kenyan boa to a Colombian....that just does not make sense....to me...but who knows, maybe I can change.......but why not Centrals to Colombians??
Seems I remember just 4 or 5 years ago lots of boa breeders had trouble with me when I was talking about breeding BCI to BCC I just thought why not...seems it would make the perfect albino.....I never had the boas or the capability...just an open mind and an eagerness to try new things....

seems the best albinos to date have come from those...

I have wondered why boas have not shown us the color morphs as the Ball pythons have...well, it is my speculation that this is why....our inability and unwillingness to try new ideas....

Now we have people breeding balls to bloods and Angolans...and who knows what others...
Morphs are Morphs....NOT Locales!

Seems to me Locale breeders would rather this distinction...as it sets them appart...gives more value and credit to their efforts in this area of their work.

I say breed the Centrals to the Colombians...I think we have some missing links because of it....

I think we are on the verge of some major break-throughs for sure...

I am very greatful for the pioneers who have made all this possible..

Just me sharing my thoughts...Have a great day all...

Take care, Andy Federico
