can argentines be bred with any other boas? such as red tails columbians or any others?

Yes they can, whether or not they should be is a question of some considerable debate. See, boa constrictor subspecies evolved the way they are for a reason. Nature intended Argentines to look different and grow to different sizes than say, a Hogg Island. Many theoretical reasons can be given as to why this is, but simply put, we should not undo what it took nature millions of years to accomplish just because we can.

Personally, I like really like Argentines as they are.
Still hoping to hear from you about your spotted python breeder.

I guess you didn't get my email. The guy I got them from owns a store called river city exotics. I'm sure you can find them in the San Antonio yellow pages. He still has a few sibblings to my snake and is expecting a new litter this year. The babies are cape york and very high yellow. Mine is almost a green color, quite stunning.

I know Mike. I just haven't dealt with him in a long time.
