Until then, enjoy the pictures and critters below and feel free to call me with any questions you might have.
Here is an example of a Hypo Pearlescent:

Pair Breeding that produced April 12, 2008 litter !

The Non-Hypo mother of these babies is the Pearlescent by the way.
Since I have been breeding Boas as long and anyone except Sharon Moore, I have seen a lot of things come and go. I have seen several new "Morphs" appear, breed and sometimes after a second generation, just fade away. Here is what has happened in the past.
This has been the timeline of a couple of "Morphs";
1. New "Morph" appears.
2. The producer either claims, or allows others to claim, that his "Morph" is "Co-Dominant". This after a first breeding without any further trials.
3. Then others, who have spent good money on the project, breed these expensive animals and don't make any of them. Uh oh. Next claim;
4. Then we are told, "It must be a Simple Recessive trait". Next step;
5. Someone breeds "hets" and they don't make any either. Finally;
6. They just seem to fade away with everyone who invested in the project wondering what happened.
It should be noted that sometimes the people who in fact bred and proved these wanna be morphs not to be morphs at all, were victims of premature claims as well. I am not pointing fingers here. I just want accurate information out there is all. So I have waited long before offering a mess of these to the masses and have openly details all my breeding trials over these past years as it happened. I never ever want people to come back to me and say they were not given accurate information.
