Reptile & Amphibian Forums

Well I took a few new pics of my new Hypo this morning. A few of the responses to my post yesterday I think hinted that she wasn't a pure Hypo, but then again after reading the post before there is some confusion about the Hypos all together. All I know is that I think this snake is nice and ?pure? hypo or not It's my favorite snake. Just a comment to some people that have to hint around what they want to say, JUST SAY IT. I bet some of the big talkers on here are small in person.

I am simply saying that all the arguing on here sucks. I hate that people have to question everything. Of course this is like dream compared to how the Ball forum used to be. I don't know how you got the idea that I have attitude. Were you personaly offended by my comment? If so I guess I'm sorry

Hi Brian,
That is without a doubt a beautiful snake and also without a doubt it is a pure hypo boa! The confusion in purity is from the locality of the original bloodline from the original creation of the line? It is without a doubt, one of those "who cares!" things when it comes to a Boa Morph. It is only a question if you ever wanted to try and trace back the "family tree" of your boa to fine it's pure blood line.
No one has ever claimed that the Salmon/Hypo line was a pure blood locality line of Boas. It was never meant to be such. It is a beautiful Boa Morph with a mix of BCI blood from differnt localities, But then again who cares, it is still one great looking snake and one to be proud to own.
As far as talking big and being little..... it is all just opinion and thoughts from different perspectives, if we all thought the same way then nothing would ever get done. There are the purest folks out there and I have to say, some of the pure locality blood line far outway in natrual beauty some of our Morphs. They have their way of thinking and morphers have their, but take a look at hermann's webpage one day. I think you will be amazed at the beauty of some of his animals, all of which were pure Bloods...... But I will let you in on a secret....
Hermann had Albino Boas once! LOL We almost had him on the morph side of things but then he reverted back. I'm going to keep trying though.....
Convert Hermann....Convert Hermann.....Convert Hermann....
Thanks

both the parents are hypos. The father is from Doug Matuszak(Boa Basement). The mother is from Jeff Gee line.

No, what I am saying is that if your boa appears hypo, then it is a hypo. Hypomelanism is a dominant gene, if it has the gene, then it shows in the appearance of the snake.

Sorry Like I said before this is my first Boa and I'm not an expert on genetics yet. So the only thing people can question about hypos is if they are a crossed hypo or a pure bci hypo, correct??
