That arab is near perfect. What would make her perfect is sending her my way :(

Your collection should soon be one of the best around here Ryan.

[Unas-TheSlayer]

Thanks Randy.

Does anyone know if striped arabesque have ever been produced?

I wonder what a mixture of those two genes will yeild...

[stevo]

Congrats on all your new Boas!!! I'd have to win the lottery or get 46 part time jobs to afford all those beauty's. Excellent investment though! ;D

[thunder]

that arab has a kick-@$$ tail! it's really unique.
