Tracking down a BSR’s lineage…
This female Boy Scout Road alterna was in the collection of Ric Blair and acquired by me this year. She is now in the collection of Robert Pelaez to pair up his wc male from the canyon area. According to Ric, he has never bred her, but he did not doubt her locality. He does not remember how long he’s had her, nor the person he acquired her from. I have developed a valid lead though.
According to Norm Nunley, this snake is wc and was collected by a Rainer Vesser in the mid 90’s. Does anyone remember this guy and/or still have contact with him? Ric did say he did NOT acquire her directly from the original collector (whom he did know, just couldn’t recall his name), so that means she has passed through at least one other person’s hands before his.
Before Robert goes to the trouble of working with her to get a clutch next spring, we wanted to get her on the forum and see whether anyone else remembers this snake, and could add more details about her history. In fact, any comments would be appreciated – positive or negative. I don’t doubt her authenticity, just would like to document her long journey.
Here are a few recent pics of her.
Thanks
RUSS
