Hey Robert,

Yes they are pure Panamanian Boas. I bought a shipment that was recently imported and the animals were amazing. All of the babies were flawless little fat guys except for one that had a hard belly. The patterns on the normals are awesome! Some have mottled light blotching down the sides, very tight patterns dorsally, and cool tails. There were a few hypos and they were simply amazing. Much cleaner than the Nic. hypos, they kind of resemble salmon boas. This is a picture of one of the hypos...

I think these guys will be a great addition to the boas that are currently in the US and the possibilities with them are many. They will definately keep the hypo gene going strong in the dwarf boas!

Those things are out of this world! Some of the coolest boas I've seen this year. Congrats on aquiring them!

Thanks Chris! They are really cool boas and I can't wait to see them when they shed again and again! I was looking at Vin Russo's site and he has some incredible hypo nics that he produced that are just electric. And of course there are the dream T snakes that Tom and Jeremy have too......oh if only I had one that 200 million dollar powerball!

Matt -- My god, those snakes are incredible! You've definitely got the contacts for some great animals. Everytime I see that you have a post with a pic I make sure to grab the chair before I look at it -- and I still get blown away!

Now I just need to locate the male...

I think it will be really cool to have a group of the original hypos from Panama. Cant wait to get mine, but I have to wait until the 26th of June when Jon returns.

Those ones you have look awesome.

Thanks Bob,

I actually have a 2.5 group of them and maybe soon parting with 1.3, leaving myself a trio of which the two previously pictured will be a part of. Here is the second female out of the group that I will most likely keep.

I think you will be quite pleased with the hypo female and post tons of pictures when she arrives!
