Blue Boas

I read all the recent posts about blue boas. I figured I would post up another pic of my Blue Costa Rican. She is an very wild looking snake as she has remained as blue as she was as a baby, and now she is getting a wicked orange belly. One of my favorite Costa Ricans.

Jared, she is absolutely beautiful! Do you know who produced her? I'd also be interested to see how she develops over the next year or so. My CR x Mex holdback from two years ago started out looking exactly like yours. In your first pic, I can see a tiny bit of yellowy/goldish showing through on the dorsal surface. With my girl, now at 1 1/2 years old, that golden color has spread over her entire body and has overcome the blue color. She also has a flaming orange belly. What color is the belly on your girl/ I will try and get a series of pics up to show the color change.

I just saw your comment about her orange belly. Very interesting. Here's some fairly recent pics of mine and you can see the golden color creeping down into the blue on her sides. These pics show her a few months ago when she was maybe 15 months old.

Mine came out of a shipment from Costa Rica in 07. I got to see the entire group that came in and picked a few to raise up....this one was a stand out from day one!

Nice Jared! I'd love to hear and see what happens when you breed those puppies!
