This is my modest sand boa collection, specifically all my adult breeder sand boas inculding my new HUGE HC albino female:

Unfortunetly my rufescens is in shed, but normally he is a lot more red in color.

Also here is one of my favorite het. anery babies that I produced this year:

Take care and I hope you enjoyed.

I love Albino's, too.

How old is your Rufescen.

Here's one of my favorites.

Im not sure, I just got him from the Bell's in daytona about a month ago. But he is about 100 grams. I plan on breeding him to the albino and that normal female. I personally think the albino stripe will be the ultimate kenyan sand boa. Although I still havn't gotten him to eat. He just kills the mouse then leaves it.

If he is 100g he has good weight and I would not worry about him not eating. Males tend to go off feed. One thing to try though is to offer him a smaller meal...

Nice looking snakes!

I'm having problems feeding my Ruffies, too.

If you look a bit lower in this forum, Scott and some others posted a bunch of pictures of what you get when you cross a Ruffy with......I don't think I've seen pictures of an albino stripe, yet. Would be cool!

Seen some of your videos on youtube. keep up the good work. More people should do more sand boa stuff on there.

Thanks, and ya I agree. There are a few other people on youtube who breed sand boas, but none of them have anything more advance than an anery, and most people on there, even with kenyans, have no idea what a rufesence is. I posted a video on my rufescens and I had people asking me if it was some sort of rough scale sand boa.
