Hi ALL. I was thinking that i will post these beautys in here because something is bothering me very much. I hope i will get some advice on this subject. SO, here is the story: Back in 2002 i bought a few boas from a animal dealer in Poland. One of them was weird. When i saw that snake i said wooow. Not laught. I payed for that one 80$.LOL Its the boa from the first picture. In the next year in 2003 he called me and he said that there is one weird again. I bought that one for 250$. He raised the price.LOL
Anyway, both of these 2 snakes came from the same female. I have no information about the males. I dont have any pictures of them. All i know is that they were born in Russia and the russians have the parents labeled as Boa con con because the guy who sold them the snakes some long time ago wrote that in the Cites. He was from SWEDEN!!!!Hmmmm.
Ok. As you can see these 2 boas look VERY cool i think. I called them Zig Zag because its unproven Jungle line in my opinion. I mean i hope they are...
I have seen many striped, reverse striped, zig zag boas. Many of them are similar to Jugnle boa but they are not genetic jungle. Jungle boas are genetic line as i know and they dont have to be striped etc. to be Jungle and to cary the valuable gens.
So, 1.Is it possible that the female - mom of these creatures is a jungle and only one of the babys from the litter is striped. I mean full stripe because there was a few others only with tail stripes.?
2. I notice that my snakes has that strange white, thin stripe on the tails. Is that typical to jungle line?
What you think of them? Thank you
Gabor Kaminski
