In fact its sometimes the only way to tell a surinam from a guyana. Then again these two often interbreed in the wild since surinam and guyana are part of the same land mass.

Use a good shed skin to do the count and do it a few times to be sure you have the right numbers.

If the scale count says BCC then I say its a cross. There are 5 different BCC that I personally know of. Im sure there are more. But none of them are quite so orange in color as yours is.
Ok. We counted the scales 242 the first time and 240 the second time. Also, I took some pictures of his belly and tail. I'll post them in a minute.
