This girl has one of the most extreme light/dark phases I have seen...sometimes she is an olive green on her back, and then there's tonight...just blinding light color...

Thanks for looking!

I never get sick of looking at Hondurans. That one is really quite the looker Heather!

Hey Heather who were the parents of the litter, what kind of locality hypo?
Bob

This girl showed up spontaniously along with a few other hypo siblings in a litter from two normal appearing Honduran boas...this is as much as I know...

She came from BCI Joe...he might be able to provide more info on the parents...

I was wondering if that was the case but I wasn't aware of any hypo hondurans not that I keep up much with the dwarfs or anything. Recessive hypo, sounds like a boawoman thing are you gonna try putting the kahl, sharp or t-pos from the nic or am I way off base? I wonder what the ratio was if it was close to the 1/4 from a recessive het x het breeding. Now all he needs to do is the visual to a "het" and a visual to a visual and it is proven. Didn't your 50/50 suri albino litter have 4 stripes and 3 didn't make it? Close to 25% or do you have the numbers again. Very nice looking snake btw

Wow Bob, that reply was all over the place. LOL.

Have a good one!

cover everything I was thinking at the moment and I went to your site and didn't see hypo under honduran so I was just curious. I tend to ramble, I switch gears a lot in the conversation but I always try to have fun doing it

There are some things on my site that may or may not be included, and may or may not be definite mutations.

Many are included in the "Other" category of Colombian boas. Others are tough to place because they are crosses. Others have unknown history, or difficult genetics. Things that aren't cut and dry. If everything was either recessive, co-dom, dominant, or wild type it would be a heck of a lot easier. But they're not.

I do need to adjust things and try to make it more organized. Right now I'm just trying to put as much in as I can without messing it up and making it impossible to follow. For instance Bloody Salmons are under El Salvador and labeled as a cross, but aren't under Panama or Colombia. The Anery Leopard is under Sonoran but not Colombia. Then the Roswell I put under Suriname but the Albino I put under Colombia. They are all labeled as being crosses, but it is tough to figure things out.

A few people have recommended just making a morph list independent of locale. I might do this and just say, morph "X" originated from location "Y" and not worry about the breedings done after that. The other option is to put them under every related category. That would mean the Bloody Salmon goes under Panama, El Slavador, and Colombia. Sunglows under Panama and Colombia, etc. for the different morphs.

For now I'm just going to finish collecting pictures, did a lot this past week. And get the info put in, like what makes up the different morphs, and the genetics of them.

I also have to go back and re-do the pics from the summer. I am now able to put in galleries, but before all I could do was one pic, and a small caption. Now I can add as much text and as many pictures as I want.

Anyone want to take over?

I'm not seeing the "hypo" here ??
My understanding of Joe's Hondurans is they originate from Jack Dyer.
Dyers breedings have produced the orange variant Hondurans unlike the Harding Line that produces the truer Red.
Both known lines(loose term) are known to display many variants with in litters,Ive seen litters where the oddballs were the darker phase(2) and the rest of the litter was light phase (9),the example being much like the one pictured.
The Harding Line also has the light phase with the orange ventral,I have one but haven't seen many of them.
You Definitely have one of the "better" orange variants Ive seen at such a young age,should be a stunner around its 3rd year.
