	Morph A morph is a color or pattern variation that is proven to be genetic. Common morphs include albino, anerythristic, gentically striped, Hypomelanistic, and many others. Morphs also include combinations of simple traits such as "Sunglow" which is Albino and Hypomelanistic. These traits may be recessive traits, co-dominant traits, dominant traits, or created through selective breeding (ie Pastel).

Define "cheeper". Most morphs are going to cost much more because of the limited availability coupled with the work that goes in to producing them.

How much are you willing to pay?

[AnAcOnDaMaN]

Does she not like them because they're too big. Or just ugly?

[AbercrombieGuy]

ugly, and maybe big lol im lookin the the ballpark of 500 to 1000

[AnAcOnDaMaN]

Big spender you. Have you taken a look at some of the albinos. They ahve a nice patter. With a Pink coloration instead of the red on the tail and the body pattern is a pink-yellow color.

Also look at Peruvian BCC. They are my favorite BCC.

	Boa Constrictor Constrictor Red Tail Boa Constrictor (Boa constictor constrictor). Refers to "true" red tail boas such as the Guyana and Suriname locales.

You could get a nice pastel, hypo or even a cheap albino for that range. Check these urls:

The Boaphile
Rich Ihle

	Hypomelanistic Hypomelanistic - a genetic reduction in the dark pigment Melanin.

You could also just go to a reptile show. The vendors combined usually have hundreds of boas. You could just walk around and find the nicest one possible. If you go with a Columbian captive bred baby, max prices won't be over 100$. Trust me, there are plenty of beautiful columbians.
