Congratz on the arrivals mate. Mkae sure you remember to send me that pm

When you post a photo like that 2 things happen Phil.....

(1) the whole idea of a pastel boa becomes crystal clear - nice comparison there - and the hypo part of the salmon hypo is easier to appreciate too;

(2) I want them!! :twisted:

unfortunatly not all the pastels look that good,this one is perticulary nice,i actually preffer it to the salmons,well at this age anyhow,i doubt that the pastel will be able to compete for looks in a few months time when the salmon starts to colour up and looks like this!!

georgeous!!! how big were the parents??
and how much you selling them for if at all!!! im not allowed anythin bigger than 5ft!!
cos that bigger than my other half!! lol
the colour of the salmon round the hand are stunning!! do they get better with age or dull a bit???

Paul

The male is around 5 1/2 ft at 5 years old,thats him pretty much fully growen,the female is around 6 1/2 ft at 3 years old,she has the potential to get to 8ft or slightly bigger.
as the salmon are generally small i would say that most of these babies will stay quite small,compared to common boas,but i doubt very much that they would be under 5ft as adults

these are recent pic's of the 5 year old father

OMG that's terrible. Sorry to repeat what Phils already said but how did it happen.

I saw most of these little guys in person and must say if any one is considering getting one from Phil then don't hesitate!

I got this Salmon Pastel from Phil: (Poor pictures as I snapped them tonight while transfering her from the transport tub into a larger tub).
