You have some very nice looking babies. I am sorry about the three that didn't have a chance. But all the others are beautiful. Good luck with them!!!!! Shannon

That is too bad about the deformed/premies. Congrats on the rest though! :'(

One little tip. Do not keep the Albinos extra humid. I made this mistake the first year and lost quite a few Albinos. They were each worth $3500.00 - $4000.00 at that time so it was a really expensive lesson. Dry is better rather than on wet paper towels or wet newspaper. I don't know why it is but they get this wrinkled skin and die many times if you keep them too wet. Good luck!
OH yea, and "BOAgratulations"!
SAHWEEET!

That is interesting Jeff about the wrinkled skin on albinos. Hopefully when they are cheaper there will be some studies on this. I wonder if the albino gene in boas is just weaker then when its in other species.
Congrats Adrian!
Later,

Thank you all for compliments.
Thank you Jeff for advice.I note that 2 of albinos and 1het have wrinkle after 2 days with wet towels so I risk to change for dry and today I read your advice b27.gif
It was good decision and I hope it`s not to late?
