The reptile centre has a litter of babies and an adult. He is such a sweet snake. Colombians are really nice snakes. And Het Leucy too! If you can find a Leucistic male or even another Het you could have some pretty little white babies. They even have blue eyes. How amazing is that.
So congratulations are in order. It may be years, but you are going to breed Colombian Rainbow Boas.
It is exciting because they are live bearers. I have had live bearing lizards and seeing a baby reptile born is amazing.
I think they can have good sized litters too. How old is she now?
Naming is tricky. Do you want to go with the same theme or do you want a different theme for your Colombians?
She's a year old. We are going to wait until she's over 3 at least so we've got 2 years to get her up to a good size.
We're wanting to stay with the theme of sifi/fantasy. I've been leaning towards Brienne today. Fun fact my husband pointed out when I told him I was leaning towards Brienne. Brienne of Tarth in "Game of Thrones" was in Renly Baratheon's Kings Guard. I mention this because his guard is referred to as the Rainbow Guard.
Which I don't know about you but it sounds like the perfect name for our little Colombian Rainbow Boa. Rainbow Guard=Rainbow Boa
I'm looking up breeding research.
