Here is a picture of my boa named Red.
I was told she is female from The Reptile Store.
Can someone tell me, since it was just sold as a Red Tail, what is she?

Looks like a BCI (colombian red-tailed boa) to me.
Very pretty!

i payed 225 for her...
225 isn't bad, since she's quite pretty and looks to be a decent size. Decent price, actually, considering its a petstore price.

nice pic it is for sure a columbian red tail boa but you did over pay for her anyway enjoy her.

man he did over pay i just saw a ad on kingsnake For $100
Looks to be a BCI or possibly a BCIxBCC cross. The saddle count could go either way, and the elongated head and tail pattern are more typical of a BCC, while the colouration and saddle shape are commonly found in BCI. Typically animals labelled as "redtail boas" are usually BCI. It isn't a pure BCC, but I can't be certain that it is 100% BCI either...
Yup Suri's and Columbians have been crossed in the past so it is(as the lovely and talented linds has said lol see ya soon neibour) a possability that this could be the result of such a breeding and I think a scale count might also go one way or the other as well I have as of yet seen any thing in print on scale counts of crosses so who knows.Still all in all a fine loking snake none the less(Really what does it matter if you are happy with the Boa be glad)
Here is a link to look at a suri x Columbian cross it is from boa-constrictor.com
