Albino'thon 07' Hold Backs

TopNotchBoas Dec 15, 2007 07:56 PM

These are my albino boas that I've kept back from the 07' Albino/Sunglow litter and the 07' Arabesque Albino litter.

The first one is this female arabesque albino. She had the deepest coloration of all the arabeque albinos in the litter. She also has a distinct arabesque pattern with a deep red tail.

From the same litter is this albino female. Her and the sunglow male, whom will follow shortly, are my favorite animals I produced this past season. This girl has it all... even the strength to refuse giving up the snake stick when I want to pull it away for pictures!:

Next is the sunglow male I referenced above. He came out as the most contrasty sunglow in the sunglow litter.

And from that same litter is this sunglow female. It took me a while to choose which female I wanted because there were 2 others that were pretty much at the same quality level. After settling on this one, Adrian ended up getting one of the other one I was considering, and later Nicole got the remaining female.

Here's a shot of all three of the potential holdbacks from July:

Man, I'd be happy to see something half as nice pop out for me next March. Those are some of the hottest animals I've seen. That Arab Albino is totally sweet.

Thanks for sharing!

For the arabesque litter: female arabesque het albino het stripe x male albino pos. het stripe. I didnt see any clear cut stripers so I am fairly certain the male is not a het stripe.

For the sunglow litter: female albino het stripe x male sunglow pos het stripe. Same deal here, no clear cut stripers so I'm pretty sure the male was not a het.

I really like the way the Arab gene improves the color.
They're all great.
Has anyone done an Arabesque Motley Albino?
Got any pics?
