Well, I have been watching this to see if anyone would respond. This topic has been discussed here before as well as many other forums around the internet. I now own the CA Motleys and hope to get a Colombian Motley soon.
I have done some recearch on this topic about the Supers and for the most part they die before they reach maturity. That doesn't mean that one here or there hasn't made it to maturity. I would stay away from the Super Motleys if I were you. It's my opinion, but I think producing Super Motleys is a complete waist of life.
There are known Motley breeders who know these answers but do not want to come forward in the public forums. Some have different reasons. It's my opinion but to with hold information like that is selfish. Some people are more then willing to share information and help us as a community, and some are selfish and are only out for personal gain. I have spoke to super Motley producers face to face and even over the phone about this, but they just won't post publicaly.
If a known Super Motley producer who has sold Super Motleys came out and openly admitted that they die, it would make them look bad and some people would more then likely be outraged. Some people paid or traded a great deal to get a Super Motley.
If you want a regular Motley then I say go for it. The Motley Boa is an awesome Boa and they have a lot of potential. I think some of the Motley Sunglows I have seen are just beautiful. I am sure there will be more Motley combonations that will be even nicer in the future and I can't wait to see them. So get all the regular Motley Boas you want. You really can't go wrong. Just don't try to produce the Super form.
As far as the two being compatible, I don't know. I never asked anyone that question. I am sure someone knows that as well. I have seen regular motley boas that were from a CA Motley male to a normal Colombian female breeding.
Good luck with your projects.
