First off those are beautiful. I saw some that looked really light, are some of they hypos?

Thanks...

Yes, a few seem to have less black than others but I wouldn't call them hypomelanistic. Color and pattern in longicauda are ontogenetic processes.. or in plain terms the way they look develops over time as they age.

The very best looking longicauda adults are black with gold or silver or even a blue tone to the face and upper body.. I'm not sure a hypo longtail would be much to look at, just another pale boa.

Thanks for the comments.
