Mistaken Identity?

amw422 Sep 29, 2013 10:14 PM

So here is Jacque, he came in a "collection" last night, a mixed bag of corns, kings, balls, sand and boas. Needless to say, gorgeous boy, but I really think that he was sold with a mistaken identity. Now dont get me wrong, not a huge deal given he was not really what I was after in the lot, just a really nice addition. However I am hoping someone can help me on what he actually is.
He was sold as a jungle boa, and I have done a little research and based on his color and pattern can kind of see that, however I really think he identifies more with either a hog island or a pearl island boa to be honest. Anyone care to weigh in on this?

Curious; What makes you think it's a Hog Island or Sabogae?

What's written above is purely my opinion. In fact, MOST of what you read on the internet is someone's opinion. Don't take it too seriously

I believe this Boa can easily fit into the Hypo Jungle category . . . .
Well with in that range . . .

Breeding this Boa is the only way to identify if it's truly carrying the Jungle mutation . . . .

Jungle to Jungle breeding is the best way . . . . .

Hope that is helpful . .
