| Square
Tails, like the name implies, have those typical yellow
squares on the tail. This trait has also been called ladder
tails in America. Different from the typical ladder tail
is it's Pastel coloring, which varies from a bright pink
through an almost florescent orange to a beautiful deep red.
Another bonus to this awesome new morph is the
saddle patterning, which is connected along the sides of the
dorsal very much like the much sought after and relatively rare Arabesque
Boa. All three of these unique traits in the same animal.
To the best of our knowledge our animals are the only boas
in the world that consistently bring out all three of
these characteristics, the Arabesque like pattern, the Square
or Ladder Tail, and the most vibrant pastel coloring in
the same animal. These pattern traits combined with the outrageous
coloring of these animals make them some of the most
beautiful and unique Boa Constrictor on the world
market today.
At the time of this printing only F1's have been produced. We plan
to produce F2's soon and can only imagine what beautiful
and awesome surprises await us.
This is the latest about
genetics of the squaretails, As
it seems now, the color of the sq.tails leaves itself intermediately
that means all the babys will have the coloration but a bit
lighter than the parents if you breed a sq.tail to a normal.
Quit the same as it is known from the Kubsch pastels.
The pattern seems to be recessive, and becomes visible
only if its homozygoes .
This year we try to breed F2, time will tell how they will look
like.
