Bolivian Boas are mid-sized, robust
Boa known for having thin saddles and silver
colouration. In some cases Bolivian's
display shades of pink and orange as well.
Some of our original animals were selected from a
large litter and show lots of pink and
silver as well as some aberrancies. We
are very anxiously awaiting maturity of this
project and will also try to keep updated
pictures in the gallery as they grow. |

Brazilian Rainbow Boas are an absolutely
stunning snake being various shades of red
and orange topped with an almost unreal
iridescence. We've compiled our breeding
group with some amazing animals of captive
bred origin as well as select imports,
representing some of the best examples of
the species (in our opinion, of course).
We are working with several unrelated
lineages and are very excited with what the
future may bring. |

Central American Boas are highly
variable in pattern and colour, even within
the same litter. They are typically
much smaller as adults than their Colombian
counterparts reaching an adult lengths of
four to six feet (females being the larger
sex). We've had males breed as young
as 18 months of age and around 36" in
length!Our group consists of a wide
variety of colours, patterns and
localities.........the future looks
promising! |

The majority of Central American Boas
available today are of Nicaraguan decent.
Nicaragua also issues export quota for large
volumes of farm bred baby Boas every year.
They are generally smaller Boas as well,
though some specimens have been known to
reach seven feet in length, with five to six
feet being more common. Though they
can have the length, they typically don't
have the same girth or weight of a similar
sized Colombian Boa.
Nicaraguan Boas come in a variety
of colours and patterns, and are very
popular greatly due to their small size.
Our collection is compiled of both captive
bred and farm bred stock to ensure strong
genetic diversity. |

Panama Boas aren't very easy to come
by given the lack of export quota and such.
There have been a couple of legitimate
shipments leave Panama in the past few
years, two of which contained captive born
Reverse Stripe and Hypo Reverse Striped Boas
(one shipment in 2005 and one in 2007).
We are fortunate to be working with these
unique Boas and look forward to what their
future holds here.
This project is held in shared
co-operation with Two Monsters Exotics.

A Colombian Boa Constrictor was the
first exotic snake that I had ever purchased at the age
of twelve. I guess that's where it all
started for me, and honestly these Boas make
a great first snake! They do get a
little larger than some other "starter"
snakes, but as long as they can be housed
adequately, they are very hearty and
generally have good dispositions.
We should have several "normal" appearing
Colombian Boas produced every year along
side our other projects, as well as through
selective breeding. We have some very
interesting looking "Pastels",
aberrancies, and other unknowns
in our collection and look forward to what
the future holds for them here! |

Anerythristic Colombian Boas are a
colour mutation that
pretty much makes them a grey scale Boa, lacking all
red and most yellow pigment. They can
vary greatly in appearance from light to
dark though it is not difficult to pick out
an Anery from a batch of babies.
Anery genes are needed to produce double
gene morphs such as Snow Boas (Albino Anery)
and Ghost Boas (Salmon Anery).
We are working with several
unrelated lineages involved in most of our
projects here and expect to produce a
variety of Anery's and combo's over the next
few years.

Arabesque Boas are a typically though
of as a pattern mutation, though they seem
to be a bit of a colour mutation as well.
Though they can vary greatly in appearance,
the typical traits of an Arabesque are very
thin, connected saddles continuing down the
tail into a "ladder tail" pattern.These
are very pretty boas and really do grow into
the look as well, meaning they just keep
looking better as they get bigger! We
have plans of crossing Arabesques into
several other colour mutations as well.

Coral Albinos are of the same strain of
Albino as the original Kahl lineage, but
with an added twist....they grow into
increasing pink and red colouration.
Typically, Corals' as babies will be very
clean and white. Their colour really starts
to come in when they reach three feet, and
continues to change as they mature. It
should be noted as well that the true
colours on a Coral Albino can be difficult
to photograph accurately. I find they
tend to wash out in a photo, more so than
what they look like in real life. There
are a few thoughts on what the Coral gene
actually is and how it works, but to most I
think it is accepted that they are Albinos
with a pink Pastel gene as well.
We are working with a nice Coral
Albino male that is also 100% het Anery....Coral
Snows should be as white as they can come!
Hopefully we'll find out in the next few
years......

A Ghost Boa is the combination of both
Anerythristic and Salmon genetics displayed
in the same snake. Due to the varying
degree of appearance within both mutations,
Ghosts also vary greatly in colour.
Our breeding intentions here will be to
selectively produce light and bright
appearing Ghosts by using clean Anery
lineages, Pastels, and stunning Salmons.
Ghost Boas have been a long favourite for
us, and a much anticipated addition to our
collection.

Typically having a reduced
pattern and number of saddles along with
decreased black, and increased red
colouration make the Salmon Boa stand out
from the crowd! The Salmon trait is an
inheritable colour mutation that has proven
to be a key ingredient for some amazing
looking Boas when combined with other
mutations. Salmons are the key to
stunning combo's such as Sunglows (Albino
Salmon), Ghosts (Anery Salmon) and the
recent three way cross, Moonglow (Albino
Anery Salmon), and several others....
When bred to another Salmon there is a 25%
chance of producing Super Salmons which are
even more intense! To add a little bit
to that thought, all offspring from a Super
Salmon will be Salmons!
We are working with
several Salmons involved in most of our
breeding projects here. We have intentions of
producing just
about every cross imaginable! The
second picture to the left is of two sibling
possible Super Salmons (offspring from a
Ghost x Salmon pairing). Obviously, I
think one is going to prove out to be a
Super Salmon when the time comes for her to
breed. GENETICS

Sunglows are another double visual
mutation involving both the Salmon and
Albino genes. The increased red and
pink colourations of the salmon and removal
of black pigment from the Albino gene were a
long anticipated combination. Now that
they have been produced for several years,
these traits can only get better through
being refined to bring out the brightest
colours.GENETICS

Hog Island Boas have always been a favourite around here. After a few
years off, we have re-acquired our original
pair of high orange adults, as well as a few
additional animals from unrelated lineages.
We are very excited to
be working with the Hog's again, and will
hopefully have a few unrelated litters
available each season. |
