    Red face !!!!And here they are!!!!

    Now my friend is not 100% sure on what types of redtails they are all he knows is they are about a year old and they each range from 34-37 inches in length he has had them since they where babies but he lost all the papers he had on them while packing for his move overseas
    They have been in QT for a lil while and it was feeding day so they are in their feeder tubs I will take better pictures in the next couple of weeks so far they are doing great

    Isis


    Nephthys


    Osiris


    Hope you enjoy he does remember one of the two heavily speckled ones Isis and Osiris are het albino he just forgets which one

    For my records I would like to know if they are possible morphs

    I'm still learning boas. But the second one looks like it might be hypo. Saddles on the third look like maybe a BCC.

    Edit: First one has peaked saddles too.

    Ok Pythons I know much more about so please be easy with me but what is BCC and which peaks on the saddles the center peaks or side peaks or both

    I know some but up until a couple of months ago I have been out of snakes for going on 12 years previously I worked rescue and owned as pets so I never looked into morphs previously they where all Python - burmese, ball, tree and boa - red, tree , then occasionally some reticulated

    BCC - Boa constrictor constrictor - True Red Tail Boas

    BCI - Common Boa

    I agree I think the 2nd is a hypo.
    Maybe that first one is Anery..?

    Im still learning Boas myself.

    Congrats! They are beautiful, that's for sure! Nom atter what type they may be..

    I'm still trying to get to to know boas myself, being and owner of an eight foot one who I just DON'T trust around feeding time, and a lil 24'' inch salmon boa. I don't know what types they are.

    Nice boas! IMO the second one is not a hypo: looks like a clean normal BCI Colombian to me. The other two are some sort of BCC, they don't look to be Guyanas or Surinames.

    Congrats on some super looking boas!

    The second boa is a normal Colombian (BCI). I think the lighting is casting a slightly pinkish hue over the snake which might have led someone to say hypo. But to me, he looks normal. Still nice though!

    The other 2 have some BCC influence. What percentage I can't say, but it's there. You won't see peaks on the saddles like that without BCC influence. However they are not full BCCs - or at least one isn't since it is apparently het albino. There are no morphs in BCCs unless they are crossed with BCIs.

    To be clear, what you have here are not morphs. They are sub-species. You could say that the one that is het albino is het for a morph, but that's it.

    Again, they are nice. Incidentally, being part BCC, the female is apt to get fairly large..... LoL!
