Arabesque ?

reptidude324 Feb 23, 2006 09:23 PM

How can you tell if a boa constricor is Arabesque? I cannot see a diffrence between a normal and an Arabesque except for most the Arabesque ive seen have specs all over them.

They are a genetic circleback (and often laddertail), also they have a fairly distinct head marking. If I had one I would try and post pix to point it out.

Is that a possible super Arabasque? The lightened pattern with "stretched" out circles looks like others I've seen that have been called possible supers. I am DYING to have one. I have an arabasque male that will hopefully breed this year, I need to find a female.

When I bought this fellow from Steve Hammond a couple years ago he told me that he wasn't a super, just one of the nicest regular arabesques he'd produced. He's colored up some since that photo was taken but an adult with colors like that would just rock. Makes me wonder what and anery version would look like.
