beautiful girl you almost got there. Its always great to see larger companies/breeders using payment plans for those that need them...this reflects that they are great people to work for and more will buy from them as a result. Good luck!

A great addition to any collection. I didnt' know if anyone answered your question below(about the sexual interruption), but I thought I'd take a wack at it. Just keep an eye on it and as long as you didn't pull his hemi off, he'll be fine. If it were torn, you'd see some blood coming from his vent. Just make sure it stays clean. And I'd give him a break from the girls for a couple of weeks. Snakes heal so fast, I'm sure he'll be ready to go by then, if any damage was done.

Thanks Matt!Yes their was no blood in his urates or stool,But it has been about a month an a half an he has shown no interest in a female period!From what I have heard from several different breeders that he is probably fine[just like you said]I have definatley learnt from this experience though!My 3 year lod male,I don't even think about touching him to offer food unless he is completly away from the female!An thanks for trying to help me an for the compliments on the new hypo!Thanks Eric[Hypoboa]

That is a beautiful girl. You WILL love her! Rich's Salmons are so nice. You will find yourself looking at her all the time and marveling at her coloring. Watching her go from lighter to darker / day to night is cool too. You will want to take pics of her at every color range. When you are finally able to hold her and appreciate her from all angles, you will know why he called them Salmons

I love those killer amber eyes, too! Congratulations!

I purchased a salmon boa from rich and john this past summer. They were great. I couldn't be happier with my boa. And would not hesitate recommeding them to anyone.
Again, great looking salmon and good luck with her.
