Very nice Orlando! Looks like you had a good breeding season. The saddle colors remind me of a bright rust color. I have tired of the BCI morph craze and really have a appreciation for the insular and central american forms.

Will you be advertising your new boas on your website?

Also, the het leopard female that I got from you produced 3 slugs a week ago. Nothing else. Seems like a small amount of ova if she ovulated. I figure the male did not do his job. Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance - MarcP

Thanks Marc! We still have a few BCC litters on the way (if all goes well).

Will you be advertising your new boas on your website?
Joel and I have been slacking lately....Send me an email with what you like or have some interest in. That's the best way. We should have the available page up and running by mid August.

Hope to see you at the Tinley Park Reptile shows...we should have a lot of goodies.....

Any thoughts?

The best advice that I can give you comes from some peers that post on this forum frequently.

Here is a few bullets taken from Jeff Ronnie ......

*Insufficient temps, which kill off sperm and newly fertilized ova
*Exceedingly high temps, which destroy sperm and developing embryos
*Insufficient water intake by the female, often caused by the lack of available fresh or clean water
*Premature removal of the male, which normally continues copulating with the female until just before ovulation

Hope that helps....
Take care!
