Hey Danielle,
IMO it's the calm before the storm, many folks are simply busy and not a lot of rainbow boa activity. Looks like my breeding groups are done. The females that will be producing look to be gravid with a few that appear to not be gravid at all (to be expected)
Did you hear about Fluffy's additional color change?
From what I know he looked more or less like this for at least several years...
Then several months ack he went through an additional color change which has stayed through at least two sheds...
Only a little of the original color remains....

Wow Dave, any idea what could have induced the change? He looks like a different animal.

I think it mey be triggered by hormonal changes. Happened right before breeding season started.
History on him sketchey as it is was he had the original change more or less at sexual maturity. He was normal looking as a neo. Also heard the same story on another Calico except the change was at the second breeding season.

LOL, you caught that I see. Yes there is another confirmed high expression Calico BRB in the world. Like Fluffy looked before the latest change.

"Yes there is another confirmed high expression Calico BRB in the world."
In the world? Or do you mean in San Jose?
