Butter Pastel, Pewter, Normal, and new BCI

Just wanted to share some pictures with you guys of whats been going on over here. I'd like to do a video of my collection soon as well, so keep on the lookout!


First up, my male Pewter:

A friend of mine surrendered his BCI to me, so here are a couple crappy shot of him in the bathtub:

I don't really know much about BCI color mutation, is he just a "normal"?


And last but not least, the fruits of my ASF breeding:

This picture is from a few weeks ago, they have already had their second litter and the first litter is weaned :) Very cute little guys.

Enjoy!

Very nice! I love the BCI! What the hell I like em all! Baby rats are so cute! I have my first couple of litters this week a small one of 5 and one of 12! But they arent ASFs. Thanks for sharing!

Nice pastel butter! Love the BCI and the little asf sausages too!

Love the butter pastel. Forgive my ignorance but what does BCI stand for?

Very nice looking snakes, loving that BCI too!

Are BCIs and RTBs the same thing? if not please correct me

I'm under the impression there are a few different kinds of RTBs including BCI and BCC. I'm new to boas though.

With boas, there are a bunch of locales. I am still learning all that too.

BCIs arn't "true redtails" - those are the BCC boas such as the Peruvians, Guyanas, Surinames, etc So technically when someone says they have a "colombian red tail boa" it's not totally correct IMO. And it's Colombian with an O not a U, I see that typo a lot too.

BCIs would be CAs (Nics), Hogs, Colombians (which I believe the OP's boa is a normal Colombian BCI boa)

Then you have BCOs, BCLs, BCAs....lol here's a good website that breaks it all down: http://www.riobravoreptiles.com/index.htm

Great looking BPs. I like the Boa to. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Angelica! So many acronyms, its hard to keep track!
