I can't wait to make some Roswell Boas!!!

These critters are just so cool, and these aren't even the "Supers"!

Technically they aren't proven "visual hets" yet either:

I thought I'd take a couple pictures of them on different backgrounds. I must admit, this is my favorite background:

So much I took two shots with this background. Cute huh?

I think anyone who has studied the great pictures Heather took for us would come to the same conclusion that I did. That is, I gotta make me some Roswell Boas!

Jeff:

Congratulations on getting into such a great project.

We can't wait to see the babies you produce from those guys.

Good luck

Jeff those are great! They look kind of familar, LOL...

That one with the floating saddle by the neck I almost kept back...

What's the history on that larger boa in the background...a sibling of my adults, maybe? Sure has the sidestriping going on...

Good luck with those, Jeff...I suspect as well that the connected pattern is the key...I would be very suprised if it turns out recessive...

Very bad, LOL...I would swear that was a sibling to my trio...the peak shape and connected saddles are a dead giveaway...

He is their Uncle "Harry" actually. I was hoping to have it remain a mystery a little bit longer though. A squirmy fellow is he. Squirmy usually means good breeder. I don't know yet, but I hope to find out in a few months.

How about those babies! Those things are screamers!!!

Great to see they're here in Minnesota. In a few years we'll have Monstertail Roswells. Good luck with them. Mark

I know you eluded to the fact that these were coming your way. To be honest when I look at these I really love these maybe as much as the Roswell Boas. These are as cool look'n a pattern morph in there own right. I wonder how much of this beautiful pattern will carry through in future breedings. I hope its rock solid genetic pattern, they look so nice. Congratulations Jeff !

I got reamed on another website for showing a pic of a roswell, and suggesting to a poster that a suriname would make a good mate for a pastel(the original poster isn`t the person that replied)....there is a few purity police on there lol. It`s nice to see that the big breeders are more concrened about producing animals with aesthetic appeal in the name of excellent taste, not like people who are self righteous about `pure` bloodlines, and breed hypos with central american blood.

Jeff,

I have an idea.....since you want to take better photographs.
Why don't you bring Ryan Homsey up to the Boa Black Hole to give you lessons!!!!! Everybody knows that he and Celia are among the best boa photographers around.

You could show him the world famous Las Margaritas and have a grand old time!!!

Nice little Roswell makers you got your hands on too!!

Congrats Jeff! They look great now, but my ones from last year just keep getting better with every shed, so those should look even better next year. Stocky little boas aren't they?
