Sweet! I cant imagine how nice they will end up looking as adults since Jungles and T pos both look better with age. Congrats!

norajohn Jul 09, 2009 10:03 PM

Thank you so much everyone for the nice comments. I will post good pictures when they shed, but here is a picture of my 04 T plus female, my Jungle het T plus male and a quick shot of a new born Jungle and a T pos Jungle. I don't know my final count, but the great thing is there is no doubt which are Jungles. They stand out like a sore thumb.
A little background; Around 2002 or 3, I was fortunate enough to visit Tracy and Dave Barker and view their collection. Tracy is showing me the collection and opens a jumbo freedom breeder drawer, within which was the best looking boa I had ever seen. It was a good 7 foot long T plus female that was unlike anything I had ever seen. I was so impressed that when I returned home I called Tracy and said I had to have one. I bought a male and then in 04 was able to squeeze/purchase a female from Tracy. My male maintained a very normal T plus look, but the female developed this fantastic ground color with beautiful pink and orange highlights. She became my favorite boa. I have had bad luck breeding boas and this girl was so pretty I just did not want to take a chance with her till 07 when Jeremy Stone offered me a great looking Jungle male het T plus with tons of color. I have noticed that some het T pluses are just loaded with color; great boas without even considering the gene they carry and this Jungle male was one of those. I knew when I bought the male Jungle het T that I had to put the two together. So, last year I introduced them, the female ovulated and the POS due date was 7/12/09. She looked great and I felt sure she had viable babies in her, but I have bred Jungles before and been disappointed with the outcome; very little aberrancies and difficulty telling the Jungles from the normal’s. I was thrilled when I looked in her cage today; babies everywhere and lots of Jungles with very strong aberrancies. Female breeder and babies are doing fine and all is right with the world tonight!

when a six year project comes to fruition. And the outcome looks like those!!!!!!!

mack1time Jul 10, 2009 12:01 AM

Wow

It is almost like the T positive enhances the jungle gene in some manner.
The male threw some nice abberancies.

Congrats

Ron,

Thank you. I think the only thing better would be if the male Jungle had been a hypo also. I can't wait to see pictures of your hypo VPI T Plus after shed and a little growing time. I think as they mature they will be off the chart. Congratulations on those.

That's been a project I've always wanted to get into! It looks like you've really chosen top quality animals as your founder stock and it definitely paid off as seen in the beautiful babies you have!

Congrats man!
