    BCI or BCC? Help with Locale as well?
    I got this lady awhile back and wasn't told if she was BCI or BCC or the Locale. I am just curious and I do not know much about telling the difference so I was hoping someone here could help me figure out what she is...

    She isn't to keen on sitting still so sorry for the crappy pictures and if they are big.

    Looks like a BCC to me. A BCI doesn't have the peaks on the saddles as I understand it.

    Well thank you! I have always been somewhat unsure because only her top 4 of 5 saddles have peaks.

    While they typically don't, I've seen a few BCI's that have peaks on their neck, which this one has, but in general, BCI's don't have peaks on the rest of their saddles. Most BCC's have very pronounced peaks on their saddles, retain a bright pattern and red tail, and they usually have a peculiar head pattern, although I do believe that one locality of BCC has no peaks on their saddle. The general rule is that if ALL the saddles look like airplanes or batman logos, and is has a crimson red tail, then it's BCC, but I'm willing to bet the OP has a BCI.

    Looks like a lovely and unique BCI! I would say Colombian but based on the head markings and saddles it may have some other influence in there. Either way doesn't look like any pure BCC to me.

    Iquitos and Pucallpa Peruvians seem to have pretty non-peaked saddles (usually).

    I vote extremely gorgeous Colombian BCI. I've seen that extreme orange on Colombians tails before but it's not that common. I love her. I'm very envious! :)

    After looking at other pictures of Colombian BCIs I am thinking that is what she is... Some of the pictures of Iquitos BCCs I found kind of reminded me of her but they all seemed lighter then she is. Either way I am extremely happy. She is my second favorite snake(my macklots python coming in first). Thank you to everyone who thinks she is unique and gorgeous. I am extremely excited to see how she looks once she is full grown. And to think I almost didn't get her!

    That is bci for sure I don't see any bcc in that little one. It does have an amazing tail! http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/12/05/amuda8eb.jpg this is a Suriname bcc I produced in 2010
