Motley jungle boa

Here is my female BCC x BCI motley jungle het albino. Never thought I would like a dark boa but I do like the look of her.

Now just image what a sunglow will look like with all that black turning orange / red. Should be better looking than this BCI sunglow motley jungle.

Take care
Tom

I like that. I would love to see more color present in Boas too. I also like to the way to are thinking about this, about keeping the dwarf blood out.

IMG is a dominant mutation meaning that the het form is visual

But how much visual

IMG is a dominant gene meaning that the heterozygous and homozygous forms of the gene have an identical phenotype.

No one has proven a super IMG, to my knowledge. So at a very minimum, we know it’s dominant, but we cannot claim that it’s not incomplete dominant and and that the phenotype for a homozygous IMG is the same as a heterozygous IMG, we don’t know that.

I’m just saying, I think it’s dominant though too.

There have also been no reports of issues with img to img pairs. So that pretty much leaves IMG to be dominant. By this point, I feel that something would have come out about an issue with the super or that the super has a different look than the het.

That is at least my thought process behind it. We could both end up being wrong for all I know
