The Blumen Boas Collection |
My "collection" are actually my pets. They are very tame and are handled at least every other day (except of course while breeding, pregnant, or after a meal). In 2004, I decided to buy the first 3 boas listed below because of the genes that they possess and the personal appeal of what they could produce if bred together. I always wanted an Albino Boa ever since I heard of the first Albino Boas being imported into the U.S. back in 1983. When Peter Kahl was successful in breeding them in 1992, I couldn't wait to own one. Unfortunately they were way out of my price range, but I'm glad I waited because now I feel the Brian Sharp line Albinos are the better looking of the two lines (no offense to the Kahl Albino owners out there!). Here is some information about the Sharp line of Albino Boas. At the time of my purchases in 2004 I had hoped to be lucky enough to one day successfully breed them and create a Sharp Albino. Of course, hitting the odds and creating the first Sharp Snow Boa is icing on the cake! There is an excellent article on Peter Kahl's website about the first Kahl Snow Boa which was produced in 1996. |
