Your Questions Answered
What does "66% het. Albino" mean for this boa?
This animal comes from a genetic cross where one parent was visual Albino and the other was 100% heterozygous (het) for Albino. Statistically, 66% of the offspring from such a pairing will carry the recessive Albino gene. This boa has a 2 in 3 chance of being a carrier. Only breeding trials can confirm its genetic status, but it offers high-potential value for future projects.
How is the temperament of this morph?
Colombian Boa imperator are generally known for having tractable dispositions when handled regularly and with confidence. This particular baby is feeding well and shows typical neonate behavior—initially defensive but calming down with consistent, gentle handling. Always support its body fully and move deliberately.
What are the primary care requirements for a baby boa?
A secure enclosure (10-20 gallon for a neonate) with a thermal gradient of 78-80°F on the cool end and 88-90°F on the warm end, provided by an overhead heat source or under-tank heater regulated by a thermostat. Humidity should be maintained between 60-70%, with a spike during shed. Provide a hide on both the warm and cool ends and a water bowl large enough for soaking.
