    Question Type of Boa? DUW

    I just picked this guy up today...came with his home-made wood enclosure which I will include in later pics...right now I am interested in what kind of boa HE is...?
    He is 5 years old and about 5 1/2 feet long. He is eating medium rats. Body pics, eating pics, and the best belly shot I could get...I am thinking Nicaraguan...just because he is kind of "dirty" in the pattern...but please let me know what you think he is...
    PS...today was his reg. feed day so I decided to go ahead and feed him, he did great...even ate it after he dragged it into his water bowl and it was soaking wet....





    Thanks for any input!

    He might be a Columbian BCI, I believe some of them get that color when they are older. I don't really know though, but that's a great looking snake!

    Feel free to correct me on my grammar.

    Yep, looks like a normal Colombian RTB to me

    My boy doesn't have as much "speckling" on his belly as yours I don't believe and I could be wrong but it looks like a normal to me.
    Success is just one decision, one commitment and a whole lot of hard work away…
