I've been curious about this but haven't found an answer yet. I know bp's and carpets, as well as bp's and womas can crossbreed. Has anyone ever crossbred a bp and a savu?

No one has every done it. Savu where fist discovered in 1997 so they are pretty new to the reptile world. If some one were to cross a Savu i think you have better luck doing it with say a Carpet or Scrub. Savu are just such unique snake all on their own i just won't see why anyone would want to cross them.

I'd also aim at the Liasis group if I were to cross the savu. They come across so similar to me.

Same. Or something from the same geographic area at least. Carpet, scrub, or timor python would all be good candidates (although I would avoid timors, they can be hard to breed successfully to begin with).
