Jungles het SHARP!!!

creptilia May 20, 2007 11:44 PM

It is about time! I have been trying for Sharp combos (other than Sharp Sunglows) for three seasons now. Well … this was my first opportunity to get Jungle hets, but those Motley hets have been difficult.

Anyway, I digress.

Hey Everyone,
It has been a while since I have posted. School (work), family, and SNAKE CLEANING seem to take up all my time. It has been TORCHURE watching all these killer litters being born having yet to have my first. At least my Sharp girl had the courtesy of having her litter 2 weeks early- just like last season. The Jungle male showed interest in breeding last year, but really turned on the charm this season and I could not be happier. I have another Jungle het Sharp litter from the same male arriving in a month from a nice Coral-like Sharp. The Jungle sire is the cleanest, brightest, most contrasty Jungle I own, so I believe his offspring are really going to clean up nicely and be Pastel-ish.

Here is a pic of the proud mama before and after birth.

Here are a couple piles of gooey babies.

The intersting thing is that I had the most wicked looking Super Jungle stillborn! I have heard of the Super forms showing up in litters (like a Super Motley in one of Jeremy’s non-Super Motley litters), but I would have never thought it would happen to me. Of course, it had to be a stillborn!

I will make sure to post more when they have shed- most likely when school gets out in June.

Congrats to all the proud new parents! It is truly going to be a great year for Boas.

Regards,

with so the resulting albinos should be awesome. Too bad about the super. It seems like every year more animals like this are being produced. It also seems like they don't do well. At any rate congratulations again on a very good litter.

I'm glad it worked out for you. That is an awesome project to finally have started. Going with Mike said, those will pair nicely with your Paradigm.

here and have such positive feedback. The boa community is by far the most supportive of all others- maybe, it is because boa breeding is so humbling.

I cannot believe it took this long to get Jungle het Sharps, especially when Kahls have been around for so long. I guess this is why I got into Sharps- there is still much to do.

Congrats to Jeremy Stone for producing the first Motley het Sharps, Steve Scroggs for producing Jungle het Boawoman Caramel (now part of the Sharp family), Kevin Blumenthal for producing the first Sharp Snow, and Big Mike for the Paradigm. It is time the Sharps are equally represented. (Hopefully, I will have a couple of these litters this season.)

It will be the coolest sight to see a Super Jungle Sharp or Super Jungle Paradigm! I cannot wait until the next Jungle het Sharp litter- the female Sharp is sooooo nice.

Congrats again,

What a nice BIG step for the project! Congrats Ron.

Jeremy Stone May 21, 2007 05:34 PM

Ron,

CONGRATS, I bet the Jungle Sharps will be insane. We are hoping for some in the next few days. Those are AWESOME babies.

Jeremy

BTW, That male DH Sharp Sunglow you sold me produced some KILLER Sharp Sunglows for me last week. VERY HAPPY!!!!

ChadHorne May 21, 2007 09:04 PM

styrsnake May 21, 2007 09:58 PM
