Nice normal breeding

mdc Jan 11, 2006 10:14 AM

This female comes from a super nice line of normals produced out here on the west coast by Chris Sylveria. Some people are calling them pastels, but I'm not convinced of that. However, I think they are some of the nicest normals around. She is being bred by her brother and the red group male in the back is serving as her headrest.

Thanks for looking,
Matt Crabe

It's hard to see how nice she really is in the above pic. Here is a pic of her taken last year.

Thanks Joe. Even though they are just normals, it is actually one of the breedings that I'm most excited about this year. It is hard to tell from the pics how nice they are, but I guarantee the babies from them will be awesome.

Awesome...gotta love those nice crisp, clean normals. Good luck. Chris does have some really nice Boas......this is one of my normals that most people would call a pastel in advertisements.

Thanks Brett. We'll have to trade some nice normals this year. Is your girl still looking good for dropping on Valentines day? You know you're going to be kicking yourself next year saying "I wish I had a male coral albino to breed to her", J/K. I'm actually very relieved you didn't take me up on that offer. Talk to soon.

Matt if that pic is of the male we were talking about....then you are a %*&@....LOL

That albino is unreal......

mdc Jan 11, 2006 11:26 AM

That is the male, but the pic doesn't even show half of his color. Plus he is only 7 months old, so his color should be starting to come in soon. You should take a trip down here sometime to check them out in person. Here is his sister which nobody would be able to pry out of my hands, lol.

I know Chris is calling them "pastels" as well. Brian Gundy is selling his as pastels. My buddy Michael Pierce of Oakland, has a pair that is better looking than ANY pastel boa I've ever seen. No kidding!! His is eraser pink with almost no black. He is the one that originally turned me onto Chris' line of boas. I can't wait to see your babies. I know my red group in the back is just a pillow rest but I hope I can get second pick. I honestly think this line closely rivals the red group if not looks better. Here is one at 6 months old

BCC influence... not as in a cross, as in pure colombian bcc..
look at the tail and the laterals..

those saddles, lol, they remind me of a jungle boa! and the intense color too!

Awesome animal!

Later -Joe

Beautiful animals!
How does a guy get in contact with "Chris Sylveria"?

I just see him at local shows. Not sure of his contact info.

Sorry,
