Ok HypoBoa a Hack proof way? maybe.....Here she is again

Hoppy Jul 17, 2004 08:28 AM

Well Someone had asked about this being a Hypo (Before the fat lady sung LOL). Tell em folks what do you think about her? She is a Double Het for Ghost female that was bred by a Double het for Ghost male Hypo from BoaBasment and an Ivory Anery for Jeff Ronne!
I'm not sure where the confusion came in from unless it is because of the Strong reds that the Ivory/pastel brings out in the line?

when the saddles are shaped like x's and the tail is lacking the black outline around all the tail circles then it looks like a hypo to me. Its true about the pastel changing the color a bit but when that snake gets bigger you will be like WOW! beautiful snake.

Just could see some black on sides(hanging part of the medalion) and the tail circles outlined in black. Very clean boa, very nice. Just thought it might fall under the "clean" deparment rather than the hypo department. I don't own any hypos but my buddy in Great Falls does so my experience is limited. I don't even own any adult BCI. Like I said, this is your area of expertise.. I don't pretend to know anything about hypos. I'm really of thge mind that the only real hypo not open to interpretation is the T . Not sure if you can answer a business question her or not but... How much did you sell that for. Again, no offense meant. The picture below is of one of Dan Ebby's hypos, I guess it isn't quite as clean.. but no outlines.

While I have no doubt that that is in fact a hypo, I think I can see where some might be confussed. The tail APPEARS to have a very very faint black outline around the upper saddles. Most people assume that a hypo will have no black above the vent, while generally that is true there are always exeptions.

Is there a pin thin black outline around the tail saddles above the vent, or is it more of a rust color?
