Morphs and breeders?

[rockynewton93]

Hi, I'm Rocky id like to know why you don't see pictures of any adult sunglows? Or lipstick sunglows? Or any morphs as a adult for that matter? If any of you guys have pics of yours to share That'd be great. And dos anyone know the best timing to buy boa morphs? If so where? Also a good place to buy 6x2x2 cages?

In general, boas tend to look best in their juvenile stages, I think most would agree. Their colors and patterns just look more vibrant at young ages, ye some develop more pinks and colors as they age, but I would say as a general statement the younger boas are more pleasing to the eye in most cases, especially in the albino morphs. If you go through the posts on breeding and pairing here on the site you will see adults of various morphs. Another reason you don't see a lot of them is that unfortunately people come and go in the hobby quite a bit, so they gather up a bunch of young snakes, are head over heels about the whole thing and post a ton of pics and then are out of the game by the time they are adults for one reason or another. Or a lot of people breeding snakes have many snakes and the breeders don't get so much out of cage time and photo ops.

I think you will find that most people on this site will refer you to Boaphile Plastics for caging, his cages are great and many people like them.

Best time to look for morphs is now, litters are starting to drop so if you keep a look as to who is having what on here and other sites, you can drop them a line and let them know what you are interested in and when the time comes you can purchase. Most litters are born between now and early summer-ish.

Okay thank you! Is there any breeders or websites that give all the info you need like parents genetic make up and what het the snake has etc to check out for morphs? I'd like to get a female sunglow and a male albino so I can breed in the future I know they have to be the same strain but what would I produce with putting the two together?
