I read all the nice responses and thought to myself, Wow, we really do welcome new members very well. You'll find this place to be a great place to hang out and discuss not only our passion for rainbows but quite a bit of off topic (OT) stuff. We seem to get side tracked quite a bit. And we also like to poke quite a bit of fun at each other, none of it is mean or spitefull, more like family.
I'd agree with the others about Columbians turning solid brown as they mature. If that's what you want, then by all means go for it but as I remember your post included comments about pattern. IMO, BRB's are pinnacle of rainbow boas. I have 60 of them (Yes, sixty or 24.36) with two more (1.1) already commited to but not ready to ship to me yet. While the morphs are still very expensive, A nice normal BRB can be had for a similar price to the one you indicated for a CRB and if you were willing to spend a little bit more, you could have a stunningly beautiful BRB. Either way, there will normally be more cost in setting up the enclosure(s) than the initial cost of the animal. I'll post my caresheet in a minute, first though are some pictures of some of mine, OK, Most of mine (I love the opportunity to show them off)
