Here's The Freak. He's a male Suriname BCC produced by Rob Tudehope. This guy has some great lineage. His "grandmother" was WC and imported by Crutchfield. His "grandfather" was produced from two WC animals that came from Louis Porras and Bob Price purchased them, then produced with them and sold the "grandfather" to Rob. The "grandparents" (WC female and F1 from WC) were bred in '94 and produced a clutch of animals and it was siblings from this litter that produced "The Freak".

Here he is, I just love this guy!

his lateral "middle medallions" are actually blue! Obviously, he's a bit aberrant as his saddles have the little bullet hole thing going on and his tail is striped. One thing I can never capture are his BLUE eyes! They're beautiful! I totally dig his head stripe and the funky first few saddles.
Also, the sun beaming directly on him made it kind of hard to pick up his developing red sides, but I assure you, they're there!

...more pics to come! :-D

Here's my baby!!! She always has been, and always will be my favorite!
Her lineage is great as well! She was born in captivity from a rather small 5.5' female collected while gravid in the Essiquibo river delta in Guyana. Her mother was collected by a friend of Matt Hunter and I purchased this girl directly from Matt. She'll never leave my collection!
She's got that "Guyana" look w/ the broad saddles and rounded peaks as well as absolutely STUNNING color at all times of the day. Sometimes she's a light pink that, if it were any lighter, it would be gone and other times, she's so intensely pink/red, that she's orange and blue! She's also very clean by anyones standards and her tail is really developing that beautiful red color!
This is her in about the middle as far as color goes.

And a head shot that I was fairly impressed with...

And just a few more pics to come, promise!

And last buy not least, this is Charlotte. Named after the person who I received her from. Thanks again Kevin and Charlotte! I just love this pair!
This is one of my two Cay Caulker Island boas. The Cays are just off the coast of Belize in Central America and these island boas are a dwarf species. I don't handle them often, but they've got pretty decent little temperaments and only occasionally strike during photo sessions.
My pair was produced from a pair of adults purchased from Gus Rentfro of Rio Bravo Reptiles. You've seen him around, the guy w/ all the INCREDIBLE looking animals!!!
Anyway, she's a little over a year old and is about the size of a newborn bcc in terms of girth and a little longer in terms of length. She has amazing color changes throughout the day and I just can't seem to capture any of them accurately. She goes from a light white and gray, to a less intense white, dark gray and black! She and her brother could make almost any anery jealous!
Here are a few pics of her that again, don't capture her light color very well, they kept turning tan :-

I've got two more pics, both head shots, but the file sizes are pretty large so I'll post a new thread for them...
