Posted - 29/07/2012 : 09:27:04 would that be warren booth? was reading something about sonoran's on RFUK the other day and he was saying the pure sonoran's can be traced back to his original breedings |

Posted - 29/07/2012 : 08:30:47 to be fair to the seller i got grace from both the male and female looked the same.
the other person who bought a male sent pictures of the parents to the chap who first breed them in the uk, and from what i have read the majority of sonorans in the uk can be traced back to him. he did inform the seller that his male wasn't a sonoran.

Posted - 28/07/2012 : 18:55:13 I did think its markings looked very Anaconda-ish
I think its very difficult to find 100% pure blood lines without someone somewhere breeding it to something else and then proving it to be the genuine unaltered article is even harder. I tried very hard to get a pure Hogg Island Boa now the I only really have the guy who sourced her for me's word that she is pure but she has reduced patterning so its possible she may have a little bit of something else in there to achieve it. I'll never know either way for sure but to be she is just a beautiful Hogg |

Posted - 28/07/2012 : 11:42:21 yeah she may stay small
i have ask the other person if the sell was informed that his male is not a sonoran |

Posted - 28/07/2012 : 11:38:16 maybe not that big if shes got sonoran in her. if people cross breed they should lable them as cross's but unfrtunatly some dont |

Posted - 28/07/2012 : 09:50:40 yeah its just a waiting game on adult size
i asked the person if they had a rough idea of adult size but the chap who confirmed there not pure couldn't say
just a shame people feel the need to X breed them |

Posted - 28/07/2012 : 06:10:08 bit of a shame when you find stuff lie this out but like you say you still wont change them. she may get a bit bigger than you expected now |
