where is the best locale/type/breed for a beautiful RED tailed Boa? where can i find one for $300 or less?

specifically - i'm looking for a bright red tail... don't care about high priced morphs

Then it's Boa constrictor constrictor (Bcc) you want. More specifically Guyana, Suriman, and/or Peruvian.

I meant Surinam. I'm having computer issues compounded by lack of caffeine issues this morning

I would go Peruvian. You don't see nearly as many. Try Rio Bravo Reptiles.

If you want RED you want a Suriname... Peruvians are generally lacking in the tail department... Not to say they dont make up for it with everything else...... I have 3 pairings this season ... if you want to see the breeders check my webpage.....

If you reall want a super Deep red tail go Belem Brazilian

Or here are two of my best Surinames

To me there is no more beautiful snake than a True Redtail BCC.
As the others have posted Surinames and Guyanans have the nicest tails while Peru boas might lack in tails they make it up in body colors/markings. I have never raised a Belem Brazil Boa but the too look awesome in pics.

Sean at Exotics By Nature has some nice Suriname babys priced far lower than what you stated. I have bought very good snakes from him and he is super to deal with. Bill

...three years ago it was just another snake cult...
The Retic is King.
Anacondas-the other Dark Side.
Afrocks-the dark side of the Dark Side.

I recommend these
2009 Surinames

2008 Surinames

Andy is a great guy and he has some top knotch boas.... these are priced very low considering the bloodline they come from... they are Florida Redtails bloodline..... Andy is a good friend... and has great taste in boas

Here are a couple of pics of 07 Matt blast pucallpa Peruvians red tail boas to get an idea of what Peruvians look like.

Those Blast Iquitos have by far the best tails Ive seen on a Peruvian
