Lately I've noticed some of these being sold in the classifieds. I think the guys name is Danny Bristow. I'm wondering if anyone has some info/experience with these Boas?
I'm especially wondering how it works genetically.

Thanks for any info!

Hi,

There are a few lines of proven genetic stripes. It is a simple recessive trait. Unfortunately there are even more that are not genetic.

Thanks for the info. I was writing about Danny's animals specifically. He sent me an email explaining how it works. His animals are definately not recesive.

Not recessive, eh? Cool. Looks like he's been perfecting that line for quite a while. Are you going to get one of his stripes?

Yeah, I'm thinking about getting a male. They don't seem to have the best color. I'd like to pair one up with one of my Pastel females. The only thing better than stripes is stripes with color!

I agree...I'm trying to figure out how to make those magma stripes. I really like those.

are they dominant? or co, or what? Now you've got me interested!

We believe Danny refers to them as being progressive. Rather than co-dom, or recessive. We need to call him again, to get an understanding of his terminology. Our female produced a litter that was 3/4 striped. Check out the pics in the gallery, under username porsche (T.A.Z. Litter, also A Star is Born). The most recent pics are on our website.

Hey Jason,
Danny Bristows Stripes are definitely genetic. We have a gorgeous female stripe produced by him in 2002. She dropped her first litter this year (she was bred to a Salmon male with a 1/3 body stripe). The babies are awesome! The litter was small, (first breeding), but the quality makes up for the quantity! Click the link to see more recent pics, they are listed under the Genetic Stripe section.

Those are great looking babies.
Has Danny just started marketing those babies recently?
One would think that he'd be better known, since definate, genetic stripe bloodlines are not very common.

Hey Jason,
It's funny you should ask. We acquired the female from a third party about 2 years ago. When we decided to breed her, we tried to contact the person we had gotten her from. Couldn't find him anywhere, we then tried to find Danny Bristow (we were told he had produced her). We had posted on fauna, and asked every person we could think of if they knew him. Couldn't find him. He very recently showed up on Kingsnake (approx. 2-3 months ago). We spoke to him regarding our female, and he verified producing her. He has been working with this line of stripes since the 70's. They are truly beautiful animals! The only thing is, Danny will not introduce any morphs into the bloodline. That's where we come in, we are willing to do a few different projects......... If you'd like, give us a call, the number is on our website.
