How can I tell if my albino is bcc or bci
Hey guys I just got my first boa, and I'm not sure if she's bcc or bci, is there any way to tell?
Re: How can I tell if my albino is bcc or bci
It was about 4 years ago that a pure bcc albino was being offered for sale for $50 000.
I'm guessing your new pet is more than likely bci. ;)

well pics would help us determine which it is, but more than likely its bci. I haven't seen a pure bcc albino yet. there are bcc bci crosses out there and yours could be a mix but more than likely its a bci as that is the most common.

But pictures would say for sure and we like to see pics anyway..... ;)
I'd go with above that pretty much verbatim. If it's a morph, 99.9% its a BCI.
BTW,, there is NOTHING wrong with BCI boas. I love localities and purity.
That said, locality lover or not,, too me BCI is not a "lesser" snake than a BCC. They all have their beautiful qualities.
I can say as BCI owner, my snake is my FAVORITE snake. That's how it should be IMO. Get what makes you the happiest and don't worry if a snake snob thinks less of you because of the last letter in the BC type LOL.
But I also understand if you are just curious.
Post a few photos. If its a boa its cool and we all like cool boas!!

Re: How can I tell if my albino is bcc or bci
1 way is the shape of the head. BCC have longer more narrow/arrow shaped heads.
