The easiest breeding I ever accomplished

STUART Dec 29, 2007 10:53 PM

I have never in the history of breeding boas had a breeding this easy. I noticed the female a little swollen, so I introduced the male on Dec. 15TH he was the first male she would be with this year. He bred her night and day till about 3 days ago. Today she is beginning ovulation! I am absolutely shocked. I have NEVER seen a female take that quickly. It looks like 3 others may be following the same route! Hoping for a good year! This breeding was a HET SUPER STRIPE (Jablonski I think its called) To a HYPO HARLEQUIN HET ALBINO MALE. Hoping for something cool to pop out, to breed back to mom. Hope the interest in the Super Stripes will go up now that the Sutherlands have them.

we had more pure blooded Super Stripes.

Cool morph indeed though. Just not a fan of all the mixing that has happened.

Anthony LeCompte of Conley Herps, Inc. has done a LOT for the morph! Very under appreciated for his work.

I’m not too familiar with the super stripe morph. Very cool but where did this originate?

Boas from the Yucatan Peninsula.

I think.

To my knowledge, the only pure blooded Super Stripe is the founding male that the Sutherlands own. He was collected from the Yucatan Penninsula as an adult in the 90's. If he breeds, then you'll see more pure blooded Supers in about 5 years. I'm already on that waiting list. Until then, we'll breed ours to columbian morphs to create some awesome designers.

Nice job Stuart on that breeding. Aren't you glad you didn't sell her.
