1.4 Brazilian Rainbow Boas
1.0 Peruvian Rainbow Boa

Argh, it's still on hold, thought I'd be able to announce it weeks ago but unfortunately, not able to just yet.

One hint for those following along:

The big secret has nothing to do with any of my 2007 breedings so is in no way related to my - pace and check cages while waiting for babies situation.

So Jasmine, what's the bet?

Yeah, I was looking at what brb's you had in your gallery and trying to figure out what you could breed together to make something special, and I thought you might be trying to make a red hypo like hummel did instead of the standard flesh colored hypo. my boyfriend thinks you are just stringing us along for some slightly-above-normal coloration brb babies. If I win I get a foot rub, if he wins he gets a back rub cuz there is no way in hell I would touch his feet! You don't have enough breeding age morphs to do anything wacky, unless one of your anerys is a male and wants to breed this year to a hypo to make ghosts or something wacky like that. In which case I want to get on the waiting list for a baby.

Hmmm, both things I am going for but NEITHER is the BIG secret. Bigger IMO then even the red hypo!!!!

Trust me, when it breaks, there will most likely be a lot of discussion on it!!!

the wrong way lol i ment cool hybrids as in the green treeX carpets or some other ones or the wolf X huskie dogs n things like that but no more longer conscidered cool when a human and animal do it lol

I'm guessing that something is going to be happening in Dave's world. Something that has to do with his BRB's. Something along the lines of having an article written about him and his breedings and published in Reptiles or something like this.

Or is it going to be bigger?

being in Reptiles is really awesome and all, but the surprise had better be a lot of cool babies is Dave knows whats good for him! Maybe a new morph or hybrid.

At THIS time.... is that the key phrase?

So Reptiles magazine has decided to get into breeding BRB's and have made you a deal that you couldn't pass up. They gave you
7 million dollars for all of your snakes and you went for it....

Nahhh. You wouldn't do that to all the people hoping for babies, would you?

Not a key phrase, no article or puplication planned at all, but does not mean it couldn't lead to one.

for 7 mil, I'd be soooooo sold!!!! Take a small percentage and buy up a bunch of babies and start all over again!!!

Heck, I could even give big bucks to each person on the wait list to make up for their loss.

So you are not going to TELL us what the surprise is.

Would you at least tell us WHEN you will tell us?
It could go like this..... (Copy and past these if necessary)

"I'll tell you all when the babies are born."

"I'll tell you when I know for sure."

"I'll tell you when I'm damn good and ready to."

lol

but suspense is building and it's not involving your new born baby brb's so I am eagerly awaiting the news and the press release e-mail
Bob

dave is finaly gonna pay for my gas money so i can come see the gooey mess of babies be born and clean up after then right right right lol man that would be the best surprise ever i would even sleep in my car lol. im so dyin inside to know but it ry to forget about it and go do somehting else or spend more money i dont have

My guess is a morph of some kind, I hope it’s with BRB and not with your collection of BCI or a possible move into CRB. What do we know, it’s not a ghost, not an amel and not a publication. What BRB genetics are out there that can produce what morphs, mainly anery and hypo and they make ghosts. What about a BRB 100% het for ghost or 100% het for amel OR Triple hets, lol?????

"Long time Herper, first year Breeder `07."

a male hypo het for anery (ghost), two anery's het for hypo (ghost), don't believe it is triple hets unless Ian has them which I seriously doubt cuz he needs a ghost or snow to make it which none exist or haven't been shown and only Ian has the albino brb's but I don't think Dave's secret is a morph with brb's cuz they are not of breeding age so what can that big secret be huh Dave??????

Hehe I was joking about the Tripl hets but maybe double hets??

Dave does it deal with BRBs at all?
