A question about size and temperament differences (Morph BCI / BCA)
Hello all,
I'm back with yet another boa question... I was looking on another boa-specific forum and the folks there suggested that I consider looking into male morph BCIs and also BCAs as an alternative to just looking at the smaller locality boas (tarahumara, hog island, etc.).
I know that BCIs have a huge range in size, but is there a general rule of thumb with morphs (i.e. they tend to be smaller, larger, etc. than your standard BCI)? Since staying smaller (pref. male 6' or less) is important to me, what would I need to ask the breeder to determine how big a baby might get (i.e. should I ask what local the morphs are based in, what length / how old the parents are, etc.)?
Also, if you have any feedback on temperament / size of BCAs vs. BCIs, that would be great too... I have heard that they are more relaxed and generally stay smaller (under 6'), but I would welcome any additional information you could give me. I know they don't have a range of morphs like BCIs, but the ones I've seen pics of look great, and if they really are more "laid back" that would appeal to me as well.
Thank you, as always, for your time and sharing your advice!
