    On the flip side, there are some that have crossed in order to intensify the colors of the BCi morphs, such as albinos and such for brighter reds and don't make it known that the crosses were done. I've seen statements 'it's a morph/designer boa anyways so it doesn't matter if it was crossed'. Some morphs are crosses and they made it known (like roswells) but years down the line, is that still common knowledge? The majority of hypos out there are locality crosses. It really comes down to trusting the breeder and doing research. Some people care and some don't care at all, it's up to what you like. I simply hope people are honest about it.

    With an unknown history, one can never really be sure.

    Get your pics up and we can try to give our guesses, most likely some form/locality of BCi since they are the most common in the hobby.
