Please verify the sexes of your animals promptly upon receiving
them to ensure our accuracy- mistakes rarely occur. If you are

freight if notified within 24 hours of receipt. Payment
is required in advance by check, money order, wire transfer, credit

reserve animals. Prices quoted are for individual animals based
on their assigned grade, unless noted as pair only. Quantity discounts
are occasionally available.

for overseas shipments which includes C.I.T.E.S application/permit, packing,
freight forwarding, and a health certificate. Shipping fees outside of the U.S. will be in addition to this charge.
A 50% non-refundable deposit is required to begin the C.I.T.I.E.S
application process or hold animals.
Deposits
All
deposits are non-refundable in that they may be used for current

Identification
Our
IDs are simple. The year of birth, litter name, litter id,
sex, and grade. Using 02_spha.12mK as an example: 02_ (Birth year
2002), "spha" (Name of birth mother), 12 (# in litter),
"m" or "f" (Male or Female), A, B, C, or K(Grade).
Pricing/
Grading
The
Ihle Scale depends on a simple 5 tier letter system: C,
B, A, K, and KK.
The KK grade is reserved for the really spectacular
Boas like Sunglows, Ghosts, and Snows, etc. Typically, these
grades are awarded to a litter after the entire litter has shed
and eaten 2-3 times. There are four characteristics of each boa
to determine its grade: Cleanliness, Color and Contrast, lineage,
and overall eye appeal.
Within
each grade the price will have a high and a low like $800-1000
for A's. This allows us to be flexible as the animal grows and
changes, along with giving us room to discount multiple boa packages.
Occasionally
an animal will either gain or lose a grade as it matures. Although
it rarely happens, we reserve the right to change Bs
to As, or As to Bs
when we see an animal thats growing more spectacular over
time. Thats the fun thing about Salmon Boas; they
grow fast and change rapidly!
