I got this male from John Berry. He just shed out and has a nice red tone to him. I couldnt get a shot of his striped tail but I will when the opportunity presents itself. He just ate and I didnt want to disturb him too much. Thanks again John and thanks for looking. Mike Panichi

pure central american is all I know. As far as what local this line is from, you'd have to ask John Berry. Thanks

El Savador. However they have been bred to Salmons which adds a lot of Colombian and a little Panamanian. Also John had one litter bred to a presumed Costa Rican female (I believe is El Salvador or Nicaraguan) and she turned out to be a het.
Pure blood Blood Boas are El Salvadorian.
Chris, I would answer that in a slightly different way and say that the Blood mutation is a Central American locality mutation that to date has been seen in snakes collected both from El Salvador and Nicaragua. In the same way, we can say the Central American Type 2 Anery has been seen in snakes collected from Nicaragua, Panama, Mexico and probably a few other locations.
I think its incorrect to suggest that any specific location is the only “pure” location for what is probably a Central American regional locality mutation.
Of course a total separate discussion could be held around how accurate (or not), most data is we have related to so called locality specific mutations …… but that’s another whole discussion
cheers, John
