I honestly don't come on this forum much anymore because the majority of what I'm interested in gets posted on one of the two other boa forums I visit and I prefer the discourse of one of those two over any other site. It's mostly due to the fact that the site rules aren't as stringent with regards to what can and can't be said. And as a result, some PHENOMENAL conversations come out because people feel free to discuss whatever topic they want without fear of retaliation via the TOS. Interestingly, the vast majority of what gets discussed there would be totally allowable here and the forum users have all developed a very healthy respect for one another. So despite the fact that it could break out into the wild wild west, it doesn't.



I also don't generally read all (and sometimes any) of a particular thread on boa morphs. Quite often if I look, I scan them for pictures to be honest. It has been quite a while since I've delved into a thread about the KWB's and didn't know that the background information had been further researched.



Being someone who appreciates background information, I'm glad someone took the time to research back as far as they could. It doesn't sound like anyone went back to WC with their info, but it does seem like only Colombian blood has been used (to the best of everyone's knowledge) for 2 decades.



I personally don't feel comfortable claiming country of origin unless I know with 100% certainty what country an animal was exported from. But that's my standard and I don't impose that on others. If I were selling a KWB, I'd just call it a KWB. If someone pressed for a country of origin, I'd probably say something like "the evidence suggests that they're Colombian but due to lost lineage 20-ish years ago, we can't be 100% certain - but that doesn't matter because they're FREAKING GORGEOUS!"
