Probably not. Wild type boas naturally can have aberrant patterns. Unless the breeder tells you either of the parents or grandparents were stripes, just assume it's an aberrant wild type. Some pics might help, too.

From these pics I'll have to say it's just an aberrant-patterned wild-type, I'd be rather surprised if it was het stripe.

thanks for that
The real test however will be to "prove out" any possibility by breeding the animal.

I could try her
With my motley as there both het for albino I presume the stripe is co dominate like the albino so could produce half decent motleys
