Reptile & Amphibian Forums

Hello,

I've been on Kingsnake for years, but I am new to this forum. I look foward to meeting you guys.

I do not currently keep boas, although I have had many in the past. I keep mainly venomous (cobras) and pythons (carpets), and a few colubrids.

Thanks to Davey (I'm not sure if hes on here), and Joe Lydon, I have picked out my first pair of investment quality boas. I am currently looking at an 03' male DH sunglow, and a female 02 albino.

Welcome to the forum Chris!! Andy Federico

will be hooked in no time. They are truly awesome animals with great personalities. They have a way of sucking you in. I used to really love carpet pythons due to there personality and now have almost all boas you will see what I mean very soon. Congrats again Vinnie

That sounds pretty exciting. I really enjoy my carpets. I plan on getting into jags next year, as I have already put alot of money into them, and continue to put in more. If boas become that addicitive, Im surely going broke! Although, if I would use some sense, I could become quite profitable also...

Anyway, thanks for the welcome

I am sure you will enjoy it here and if you do get those boas I am sure you will want more. Also many people here have other snakes besides boas. I understand the fascination with venemous as I have had them for 15 years. Cobras are awesome but a bit too unpredictable for my taste. I had a Forest Cobra for 3 years. They grow like weeds and have a bad attitude. Have you worked with them? I also like Red Spitters and Capes real well although have never had any.
Well I am beginning to ramble so the point is welcome to the forum and we are glad you are here.

Thanks for the welcome. I LOVE forests. If I could make that word bold, and underline it, I would. Ive had 6 forests over the years, and for one reason or another, no longer have them. I sold my first trio when I moved, and my second trio, unfortunately, died in an electrical malfunction. I currently have albino monocleds and black paks that will breed this coming year. I had 2.1 red spitters, who also died with the forests. I have never kept capes, although I would like to. Other than that I have had formosas, suphans, and javan spitters.

Unfortunately, I am unable to get the boas I mentioned in my first post, as they are sold. It is okay though, I was putting a deposit on them until august when I get most of my money, so I have plenty of time. I am pretty excited about producing sunglows though! I have lots to learn about all of the other morphs, so maybe Ill get into something else on the way.

You'll find that albino hets that are old enuf to breed are scarce and will go fast. Welcome to the forum. When you get youyr boas you will want to post pics here, we love pics.
