Rosy Boa Question

stevebinnig Aug 25, 2007 03:50 PM

What subspecies are the really big, powder blue Rosies with the rust colored stripes?
I remember years ago, before the taxonomy changed, these were the common ones that everyone called Coastals.I think they were roseofusca.
Can you guys enlighten me on what they are called now, and also, are they the largest?
Thanks very much for your help.
Steve B.

They are still rosefusca's.
In my collection they are definitely the biggest.

All your info is correct. Riverside Co. is reputed as having the largest Coastals.
