    I've added a few more, I hope they help.
    Morph ideas? I think he's just a normal, but again, Balls are my area of knowledge (I'll never grow out of how that sounds)

    Thank you. He's a pain to get photos of, he's still really jerky. His sister was the sweetest thing ever. It would explain why he and his clutch mates aren't as large as other boas their age, too.

    You have a BCI and without knowing the parents heritage you will have to go with the sellers info. Colombian is an extremely common locality to have. I have a few myself and love them...

    Thanks! Since I'm new to boas, the BCI is not the "true" red tail, correct?

    I'm not concerned, just curious. I love him even though he's a jerk. I did dig up photos of the parents, I just don't have contact with the breeder any more. Here they are:

    Yes BCI is not "Red Tail" on the books, that would be BCC but the common world calls them all that. I have 3 and they are great. Awesome to handle and "play"with....

    I'm hoping he calms down. He was really chill when we brought him home, and as I said, his sister was a dream girl. But he's having a hard time getting used to having a dog running around the house and barking, I think. He is very nervous acting. Once he's calmer, it's going to be great having him out more. Are your boas "face snakes?" Zillah was, and when Ruska was out for the first few days, he all but broke my glasses. Such strange creatures.
