For someone who has worked extensively with photoshop, that picture is definitely not right. Look at the edges, look at the lines, the colours, the sharpness.

Imagine the snake is not part of the original picture... what IS that guy doing!?!
Go to Tom McCarthy's big boa page and you see some huge boas!

That picture may be fake, but some Colombian females can and do get that large. It is not all that unusual. My friend has an 8 year old Colombian female that is nearly 10 feet - yes 10 feet. A very impressive animal and not overfed in the slightest. People forget that Colombians can get this large. More of the insular localities are becoming popular in the trade and we think of most Bci as only hitting 6-7 feet. But the females can get much bigger than that. It isn't really that common, but it does happen.

When I saw this pic a looong time ago I always thought it looked off too....I call photoshop as well. But that aside, looks to be a BCC to me (without peaked saddles)
Go to Tom McCarthy's big boa page and you see some huge boas!
Is that not an obese snake?
Also, I'm sure BCCs get that large. Not doubting that. The picture itself is just fake and it always baffles me how people can't tell!

Yes,,, looks fat to me but its old (over 13 years) so he didn't totally power feed it or it would have died earlier.
Tom's big boa page has several examples of BCI and BCC giants. All shapes, some horribly obese some not. He just takes photos from the web with permission and posts them on a page.

That isn't fake. Boas are large. Some are bigger than others. Power feeding could easily achieve a boa this size after many years. My friend had a boa this size. They would feed her 2-3 rats at a time.
