If the question is does she have any "True Red Tail" Boa blood the answer is no. She was one of 43 or 44 babies in a litter. The father and mother were run of the mill average Colombian Boas. She stuck out like a sore thumb. There were all these normal pet shop baby Boas in this litter and this one that seemed to have an electric tail! After a couple years of pleading with Joel DuBay, who produced her, I was finally able to wrest her from his hands. He offered her to me for $500, sort of embarrassed that he was asking so much for a 3' Colombian Boa. This was back in 1995 or 1996. I had that $500 in his hands so fast it made him feel a lot better about it. That's what it's all about isn't it? Both parties being happy with the deal when it's done. I was very happy but the Monster Tail was not. She has hated me ever since, as do most of her babies and grandbabies for that matter.
