Hey Kelly,

I actually had a female exactly as you describe back in the 90's. I got her from a guy in Texas, and he supposedly produced them himself but it could have been WC for all i know. I was pretty new to them at the time. Unfortunatly, i cannot remember what his name was. He bred retics and other large boids. The female i had was gorgeous with her whole head being orange, varying from dark/light/bright orange, all over her head and body. I have never seen one like her since. I only kept her until she reached about 8ft and then I sold her to a friend who later sold her to Tom Crutchfield down in FL in the mid 90's. I wish i didnt sell her now, but I got out my larger stuff at the time and sized down to boas mostly. You win some, you lose some.

But to be honest, if i could even find a captive bred female with some nice orange on her, i would be happy. She does not have to be covered in it, like the female i used to have. Just more orange then average. I do see them around form time to time. But nothing like the one i used to have, like you say. Do you have any with more orange then is "typical"? Thats basically all i am looking for at this point. Thanks...

Regards,
Dallas
