Hi,

I was at the NARBC show this past weekend at Tinley Park and noticed somthing strange. My wife and I noticed several different sunglows from different breeders that had missing eyes, or deformaties of the eye. I am wondering if this is a normal occurance among these morphs, or if it were just coincidence? What I mean by deformaties is this... One specimen we saw had two perfectly shaped eyes, but one eye was missing the pupil. Some had one eye completely missing, and most others had one eye that was sunken into the skull and the skull was of-course mishaped. I have been to lots of shows and not really noticed this before, but there again I tend to not look at things in detail that I cant afford. There were so few boas at the show this year that I looked at them a bit more than usual, because the show was bombarded with ball pythons.
