Something different

'09 Boa Constrictor sabogae, I call him Marco.



Some close ups from different angles. I'm intrigued by his infralabials. They seem to be a bit more pronounced then any other Boa ssp I've kept.



Anyway, don't get many pics of him since he loves his hide so much. But I got a few good ones this time around.

Thanks for looking!

The pictures are PHENOMENAL.. Nothing better than a naturally occurring hypomelanistic boa. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks Orlando! It's the snake that makes the pictures look good though. I just point and shoot. HA HA HA

They are an interesting sub-species, that's for sure. Wish I had more then one to compare the behaviors between them. This guy is either hiding all the time, or out on his branch seemingly looking for food.

Thanks again for the nice reply.

Lets see more of that reduced pattern. He is gorgeous for sure, but you have to show off more of his pattern, or lack there of. They are such beautiful animals. VERY NICE!!!!

Not this one so much. He's a little rediced, but he's not even close to patternless.

Top...

Bottom...

I like him just how he is though.

Thanks for the comp!

Still a very very pretty animal and an underrated subspecies for sure. I love them.
