Is this animal too red?

boaphile Jul 21, 2006 08:36 AM

Is this animal too red?

This is a Monster Tail Hypo born here last year:

Do you think she is too red?

This is her Mom:

This is her Grandma:

and a couple of her cousins:

Another:

Here is a family photo taken right after the birth:

This one isn't a Hypo:

Another cousin that isn't nearly as red but more orange:

So I wonder, not so privately, "how much more red can we bring to these animals?" That plus how many more of these super red animals can I keep? There is something seriously wrong with me...

Just send that first one to me...she has that aweful red look to her....some might think you have a fire in one of your cages and just start hosing down your whole snake room! That would just be a mess....so send that one to me...I'll put it in some tinted acyrlic cage so no one but me has to ever see it!!

Nice animals Jeff!

You need to purge your collection of these communist boas immediately. I will email my shipping address to you straight away. Monday for Tuesday will be terrific.

That first boa has A LOT OF COLOR!!!! It's has to be one of the REDDEST boas I've ever seen. As much as I'd like to say, "Please package that one and send it to me...!!!!" I won't. I say, "MAKE ROOM FOR AS MANY AS YOU WANT TO KEEP!!" I think you should add on to your house if that's what it takes.

It's babies like that, that will inspire you and others to continue to breed for quality animals that will only get better and better.... Or should I say, "REDDER AND REDDER".

CONGRATULATIONS ON ALL YOUR LITTERS!!!

That isn't the reddest one from that litter. I haven't taken any pictures of him yet. Him. The best one is a "him". I really should take a picture of him. "Loco Lizards" - Marky Mark Miller and the Funky bunch were just here about a week and a half ago picking up a truck load of cages. I didn't even show it to Mark. It's just not right he is sooo red. One of these days though. One of these days.

Locolizard Jul 21, 2006 10:36 AM
