Possible Het Stripe Bino' Male - 2004

I think he's probably a het stripe. He's yellowed up real well. Pictures didnt pick it up as much as I had hoped. Generally when I show people my collection, when we get to this guy their immediate reaction is "Whoa, that thing is yellow".

T'was overcast outside... perfect outdoor albino picture taking opportunity. Excuse the newspaper ink stains on his face. That'l shed off in a few weeks .

his crazy scales. I can only imagine them on a Leopard, that would be one confusing looking boa!

to see if he does.

Could be a polygenic thing that could be isolated with a little selective breeding. Who knows. Not all that highly desirable regardless obviously but will still be fun to find out.

You coming down to daytona Chris?

something a little different from the normal pattern and color mutations, and something that doesn't affect the animal in a negative way.

Ryan, I will not be at Daytona this year, last year I went and it was great. I have to be at Cornell on Friday to move in and for orientation (during Daytona weekend).

I'm looking to go to Chicago this year, I know you went there last year, but missed Daytona because of where you lived. Did that switch for you? Or will you be going to Chicago as well? If you are we should meet up.

Take plenty of pictures at Daytona, there are some new ball morphs that I wanted to see, and some boa morphs I haven't seen in person. Not to mention I heard VPI will be there this year, so I am kind of upset I will not get the chance to meet Dave and Tracy after talking with them through email over the years.
