Chill?
Is it normal for bccs to be very relaxed?
she will stay put when I pick her up and enjoys freely lounging on the bed (with supervision )
I don't think she's lethargic
Input?

Re: Chill?
Could this be normal as they are ambush hunters?
I mean she does explore but this is my only buddy that I can sketch /do art with

Yes it's normal. I have a male who is just a couch potato. He just likes to hang out. I even take mine to work with me sometimes. He just hangs out on my desk like he owns it. He's totally different from my bp's or corn snakes. Just enjoy. Yours seems normal to me from your description.

Re: Chill?
That's what I thought. I was used to my nosey corns and milk.
I like taking her "on walks" around my neck. I think she enjoys the sun = ̄ω ̄=

Yes they are really what I consider to be real pets. Totally laid back.

Thanks! I look forward to sharing memories with her. So far, she has got one summer down. She seems to enjoy when I take her outside or on walks to the liquor store.
She's even super placid with strangers. We are all probably strange shaped uths that dispense food. Even my ball is more feisty! LOL

All my boas are super relaxed, so very normal. She's lovely by the way, but not a BCC.

What is she? I saw the widows peak saddles but knew the color wasn't typical.

Looks like a nice Colombian BCI to me: they can have peaked saddles too but the head structure, coloring, and tail on your girl all point to no BCC locality (.02)

Thanks! I did not know this. Either way she's my little baby  ̄ 3 ̄

Yep, I agree. One thing about "common boas", they can certainly have BCC mixed in somewhere, or have mainland and island in the mix.
Without locality data from the breeder, its impossible to know for sure what is in your boa. It's not a big deal unless you were promised something, or sold a BCI at BCC prices.
It's a nice snake and some of the fun of these "not sure what" boas is you never know what size they'll end up at.
I have a "mutt" carpet python and a true locality BCI. I know pretty much what the boa will end up like, but the carpet has coastal in it and she could be 7, 8, 9 or 10+ feet. It's sort of fun not knowing.
I over posted a bit here. But you have a nice looking snake, and most likely it's what Daybreaker figured it is.
