For you Peruvian BCC lovers, please take a look

Mark Damico Aug 18, 2004 10:27 PM

Check out the picture of the peruvian in the link below. I know the PIC is small, it's not the greatest picture but are you aware of anyone producing peruvian BCC with this coloration? I love the almost totally black look with the yellow dashes and yellow outlines on the tail blotches and some of the saddles.

What's your opinion on this "look"?

Thanks,

Doesn't Serpent's Den have a female with this look, for which they've been advertising for a male with which to breed her?

He's not nearly as black as the one in the photo you provided, but he doesn't get much sun either. I thought he could be a BC melanogaster, but it turns out that there are a few lines of black Peruvian as well. Pete Kahl might have a line of Black Peruvians going. Steve at Serpents Den has a Black-Bellied Red-Tail(BCM), he just got a male for that female... she's HUGE! I might have some babies from my Black next year, I'm going to pair him off with a gold Iquitos Peruvian- we'll see.
