Heather:

I normally don't think in terms like this especially when I'm describing a snake, but your little guy is just cute.

Thanks so much for continually sharing him with us.

Brian

The parents were both 50/50 Surinam/Columbian 100% hets for Kahl albino...they were laddertail boas but nothing else really unusual about them...

There were two stillborns, one 66% het and one albino, that were identical to this guy, right down to the one saddle on the neck and the spot on the end of the tail...

He was a big suprise for me!

Looking very good. I'm looking forward to seeing you reproduce these down the road.

Quick question. What color are the eyes?

Randy, the eyes are mostly black...you can see some brown around the edges of the iris in bright light, but that's it..

Those eyes are how he got the name...when he was born it was just a perfect fit, black eyes with that weird grey head, LOL

Thanks for the quick reply. I thought they looked dark, but didn't want to assume it though.
