I could be wrong but I'd say BCI or a mix.

I'll bet she's a mix then, judging from the pics.

shes beautiful!! *sigh* if only i had money to buy another snakey, lol. how long is she?

Did she tell you about the old school Colombian blood she was/is working with? The Colombians that were imported in the 80's and early 90's were distinctly different than what we see today. Even so, some think that all Colombians are BCC, but the consensus was that those animals were BCC. Even the "Leticia" Boas have changed. The first few years they were labled, those Boas were very Peruvian like. Anymore, these "Leticia" Boas aren't too far from your typical Baranquilla Colombians. Jeff Ronne and Jim Peters still have some decendents from those old Colombian lines, and I'm sure others do as well, but they blew the Colombians you see now a days out of the water. I couldn't give you a yes or no on whether or not they are BCC or BCI though. Chances are, you probably have a BCC either way, just with some semantics on what you label it. Remember, Taxonomy is a humans way of trying to understand how organic things are labled. It is NEVER absolute, and is in constant flux.

Thanks for the info.She is 7.5 feet long and between 20 and 25 lbs.

If she's 10 years old (or older) and she is 7.5' she's either a bci or a bci x bcc mix. Either way, she's gorgeous. You have a very pretty boa.

*sigh* I thought I was getting a better eye for this sort of thing, but I would have said BCI. Can anyone tell me what points it out as a BCC to you?

I'm agreeing. The indented like saddles gives her a true peruvian look, but that tail isn't a peruvain tail. It's too browned out. Also, the clean and narrow face patterns beams peruvian in my eyes too. It's definitely a cross my man. Hows that girl settling in for you over there in Roc!?

[redtail2426]

I am going to agree about her being a mix.That is what i really thought she was too.Jimi she is settling in great and she is a great eater.Thanks for the shirts they look good.
