The main thing that I think day and night about lately would be to own a T positive colombian by this summer. Uncommon morphs I NEED are Super Aztecs, Bleach Back, Scoria, and hopefully the pearl boa will show itself again. I WANT THEM ALL. Trey Schneller
Ruben's stunning Anery female! She is drop-dead gorgeous. (drool)
If it was any snake, I'd have to pick Ella-Diablo, the melanistic green tree python owned by Mr. Maxwell.

Do you have a pic of this one?
Joe
She looks a little different now that she's bigger but I hope to reproduce and better her blood this year. Thanks April,if I ever need to let her go i'll let you know first. Plus, your right across the bay now so it would be an easy drop off.



A couple more pix. I'll get new pix when she sheds and is in her lighter phase.



Man, thats a great anery. i was looking through the first pics you put up of her in the photos section a while back and she looks just as nice. what are your plans with that one?
Hey Ruben,
Very nice I’m with April on this one. Do you have a picture of who you are going to breed her to? I’m VERY interested in one of those, and I’m just one town up and on the same side of the bay. My 4 month Germany tour is over this weekend, so please send me a list and pictures of what you have available. We still need to get you some custom “bling” for the next show 
Hey Rich,
i'll probably put the hypo jungle pictured in the other post below. He's bigger and older then the pastel motley and did knock up a super salmon female last year that died trying to give birth
. I'll keep everyone posted. I still want that chain we talked about but need to get babies on the ground before I finalize buisness name's and stuff like that. We need to get another NOR-CAL get together planned soon. Probably after the rain. Good to hear from you.

Sounds cool, I'm always up for a BBQ. What's with this weather, I came back form Germany to warm up, not freeze. Sorry you lost one, I came back to find out my crayon yellow female JCP I had passed. I was going to breed her this year, it sucks!
She is so lovely! My ideal perfect anery… amazing grey and black tones, not too tan, and oh my gosh, look at that tail! Improve upon her? It’ll be tough! 
If you *ever* decide to let her go, please, please, please let me know! Hisba at yahoo dot com

Jeff I noticed the eyes on the snake in your last photo were completely black. I have a male sharp strain het albino that has black colored eyes 24/7 (they never change) and has a blue tint to his overall color. What do you think about this? If I had to choose any boa right now it would be a paradigm.

Is that like the "Ultra" Corn gene? Does anyone know?

actually, i think the paradigm boa is the boas "ultramel". i'm not a cornsnake guy though. this is just how it was explained to me
I'm pretty hot for Jungles. Still not real sure what defines one visually. They definitely have me interested.

I have to admit that this isn't the only one that I wish I had though! There are just way too many breeders that have a certain boa that everyone else would love to own. I'm sure thats why boa's are so much fun to have because there are just so many different looks that can come from BCI,BBC,BCO,ect This has been the biggest stir for me for the last few months
THIS CHOCOLATE COLORED SHARP IS JUST TO DIE FOR
SALMONBOA fan all the way
AND OF COURSE THE POSS.BLOOD SHARP ALBINO drOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLLLL
8)


Sharps are my favorite! Just wait till they have the years of refining the Kahls have had!
along with jeffs nice RED huge monster tail hypo who intimidates small male motley boas lol but deff the roswell boa first
I really like the looks of that boa but.... I wish it wasn't a cross
. Still an awesome boa non the less!
cross yeah smokin hott looks awesome DEFF. lol
Not quite sure on the name of this, but the DOA 'red devil' hypo albino supermotley...
Really looking forward to seeing a live one...
And of course, a few albino Roswells wouldn't hurt, either...

After some thought I would have to bring the IMG Boa and Aztec/Hytec up for notable mention.

Just so you know. The red devil was just a hypo super motley. I want that one too, but I'll produce my own.
Wow, where to start ...I really, really want a Bloody T positive Albino CA boa (CA Blood Boa x CA T positive Albino) .... of course it doesn't exist (yet) so I would go with a one of Salmon Boas Bloody Salmons (with a nice stripe), Rich and John have some killer examples (like this one below)... lastly, I really like Rubens Anery & the CA Super Motleys (regular black is OK with me !)

cheers, John

or a super?
A 'Ruben Anery' Jungle or a 'Ruben Anery' Super Jungle...
lighter, brighter, more yellow, more contrast, etc., etc., etc.
I think that would be simply mindblowing!!!
I get dizzy just thinking about it!
Have a great day!

What does the one in the top photo on the right grow up to look like? Does it keep that light gray? What is it?
They're all very nice. Did you produce all of them? Are you keeping them?

They are all pure Colombian Bci other than the hypo at the end.
The first two pics, those three were produced by my buddy Chris 'Canada' Smith, CCS.
The last two pics are of a Summit line Pastel and a Summit Line Pastel Hypo produced by my buddy Jeff Carr, West Coast Constrictors.
They both like clean, colorful normals and pastels like myself.
I believe the light guy will grow up to stay very similar.. I have a het that i've raised that looks very much like that one, that's why I believe this to be true.
Below is a pick of that het as a 4' young adult.
Thanks much, Joe

with her this year? He's an 05 Hypo Jungle. I wanted to breed either him or an 06 Pastel Motley that I got from Mr. Kirby. I really want to get some babies from either and breed the best male back to her when he's ready. I think that'll be the best way to reproduce her looks. I'll get pix of the Motley male after he sheds.

the pastel motley sounds great, but I think you'll get a nicer variation in one litter if you paired it with the hypo jungle.
what ever happened to the aztec pairing?
will I see you in Daytona again this year?

'Tis not the stongest of the species that will eventually survive, nor the most intelligent, but the one most responsive to change' Charles Darwin
The Aztec breeding didn't work out. He managed to get a few other females gravid so I don't know how much time he was actually with her.
I should be in Daytona again this year. I always say i'm gonna take a year off but never do! LoL
to having a few beers with you again... as always! ;]

can you breed the hypo jungle to it and direct me to your waiting list please?
Looks like the Hypo Jungle is the best bet. With my track record as far as successful breeding I don't want to count any chickens before their hatched so I won't really be making a list if infact the breeding goes well. I will remember this thread and your screen name so if you see any good updates e-mail me and i'll get your info and keep you posted. Thanks for the compliments on her. I hope I can make more like her. I didn't even like aneries until I saw this one!
Imagine what the anery fans think of that snake! best of luck on that pairing-keep us posted
Joe the color on this guy's tail is amazing as was the hypo posted below this guy, thanks for sharing
Bob

here's a cousin of hers, one of my keepers from the original Summit Pastel Salmon litter.
I still can't get over her 8)

Thanks again, Joe

how did you tell Heather to do it oh yeah, please call me with pics and offerings. Seriously Joe if you make a female pastel that is outrageous and not just spectacular cuz I "need" one this year and don't want to have to wait until '09 but I will if I have too
Bob
I'd like a Scoria. Words can not describe. What luck to produce such a morph!
How much are they anyway? Do I have to pick all 5 numbers to be able to afford a pair? 
I didn't go into the Scoria project, but I did invest in the patternless Harlequin project and the Roswell project.
Let's see what happens!
Thanks, Joe
