hello, i was wondering if being a premature baby can affect a boas patterning.. i noticed that i have seen a couple premature baby boas having missing saddles as compared to others.. i know pattern gets developed before coloring but i was still curious if anyone knew about this or have ever noticed it .. even in some litters were there are some babies that are less developed then their siblings they seem to be the ones that end up being patternless or missing saddles or have more missing saddles then their more developed siblings ..



anyway i know that it can mean nothing at all but i was just curiuos and BORED lol... THANKS !!
