Lineage of this Suriname redtail boa?

SunnySuriname Mar 23, 2013 11:09 AM

I'm curious as to where you Suriname boa experts think this boa came from - the lineage/breeder? (Slightly cheezy video but I had fun making it).

Futo blood?

Also, you misspelled "prey" in the video

Otherwise, pretty cool video

Thanks, I noticed the typo yesterday! Funny. Possible right guess on it being a Futo boa. Curious why you think that JB? Thanks for the sentiment on the video.

So, were you asking because you know and you want to see if we can guess, or because you don't know?

Why I guessed Futo... There's a LOT of his stock out there. He's been doing it for YEARS and there are a lot of progeny from his pairings (and their offspring) available so the odds that a CBB animal having his blood is higher than most other bloodlines. Also, it's decently light which is a trademark of his boas. Finally, a few of the widows peaks have little round bulbs on them - characteristic of some of his animals.

All just guesses and certainly non-scientific. I'd wager about $2 on being right! lol

I would say Bob Futo to for the same reasons JB said. The one thing that stands out for me was the white dot on Aspens head. It looks just like my Futo Suriname I use to own.

These are Bob's parents of the one I owned.

Take care
