Male Popping Pic

I hate to rub it in again...but at the local show...we have one about every 2 or 3 months...
BCI's are not "true redtails"....they may have darker tails...also called "common boas"
BCC's ARE true redtails, and have a nice red brick color that gets richer with age

BCI's from what I understand get a little bit bigger. The Colubian Boa is a common BCI.
Suriname's or Suri's are common BCC's that alot of ppl get.

I'm not sure which is "known" to be a little more aggressive...but as you know...depends on the individual snake...

A Columbian, which is a BCI or a Common Boa can be had for $60-$75 at a show...
BCC's are a bit more :D
 
Ahh I am so jealous of you!!
When it is time for me to get one, I am going to force you to pick me out a stunning one at a show so you can ship it to me! Haha.
The only place around here that I know sells them (BCC's) is petco in amarillo and I personally don't really want to buy anymore snakes or pets in general from big chain retailers for obvious reasons
 
I'm here guys!!! haha I was getting distracted by facebook...typical lol

Andrew, you don't have a local rep shop near you???

A shop? No. None that I fully trust. I don't think herps are that big around here so I don't ever get to hear if a shop is reputable or not...
So I have decided that I want to stay away from them and only deal with reputable dealers..even if that means having to order online.
 
If he does, it may just be a "small-time" shop that only carries "small" snakes if any at all :( I feel bad for the poor guy!

And dude I could totally do that! I would have to figure out the shipping deal...but ya, if in the future you'd want to set something up...who knows, in a few years, you may be buying some Striped Amels from me ;)
 
That's sounds about normal...are they babies?
For that price I could pick you one up...hell I could send you pics via cell phone before I purchased...so you could pick it out, and have it shipped for the same price.
I would trust the breeders at the show more than any shop :)
 
Poor Andrew! I think you should start up your own in a few years when you've got a nice collection going for yourself ;)
I'm SO glad that a rep shop opened up super close to where I live. It's also great that I know the dude that owns the shop is reputable :) I'm also glad that I get shows coming around every 3 months!
 
Haha no sir..YOU will be buying the snakes from ME!
My plan is to get breed my new 4 to eventually (after many tries Im sure) produce striped butters, striped amels, and my dream...striped bloods (**drools**)

Oh trust me that is my DREAM! I want so bad to start my own business in the herp industry. Oh man I get so excited even THINKING about it...
 
And I REALLY wish that there were shows close to here...
I'm thinking that I may try to make my way down to the one in Arlington in June...
Who knows though...
God knows I don't need to be driving back home with more snakes...
(Unless it should be a beautiful sunglow boa :D)
 
You aren't the only one :D:D See you at the top!? ;)

Totally...I think we should start an international herp business...and work WITH each other instead of AGAINST each other...haha..
I'll take care of the business on the USA end...you take care of it on the Canada end...
Sound like a plan? Haha
 
Wow...big plans guys...I'll just squander all your funds in cheap b****es and alcohol...THAT sounds like a plan :D

I love the Striped Butters! If I didn't love the Striped Amels more I would be planning on those :) May have to buy one of those from ya:)

That sounds like a great plan!! :D Can't wait! haha
 
By the way, I would LOVE to buy a striped butter from you when you've made 'em! They're one of my favourite morphs, but HELLA expensive.... Only saw it from one source, but they were running at a whopping 300 bucks! :sidestep:
 
And thanks guys..... You just might have me thinking about a boa... But which boa runs on the small side??? I wouldn't want anything too big :D
