That does not look like a BCO to me It looks like a dark BCI.
Nice snake though

Edited as as noted
Note: I will remove the phote shorty so if someone can post a "owned" photo that would be great

I wouldn't say that is a BCI by any means. Most of the BCO I've seen are pretty dark, but I've seen some that are quite light in comparison. I've seen a few crosses like that as well too. Sorry I cannot be of more help, very pretty snake you have there! :)

"Hi Brian,
I just visited the forum.
It is a sad thing when boa enthusiasts have no idea how a Boa c.
occidentalis looks like...
Therefore it was well done to show it to them."
All the best

edited to say Thanks Hermann for the photo usage
I have to agree with Brian thats definitely not a BCO. I also think it is a BCI, maybe a nicaraguan boa ??? I'm not sure but I know BCO have much darker and somewhat different patterns.

Hmmm...what is it? Check out a couple more pics of her here.

Sneak, go here www.boa-constrictors.com and see if you can match her up.
Chris at Reptial HQ knows his "Uncommon" Boas give him a
note and see what he thinks
That "Blue" is also a sweet looking snake, but not sure its a
bci lol.
Good Luck
Brian

I'm by no means an expert but she looks alot like my Cent Amer boa, similar circles and markings, sorry no pic yet.
Not experienced firsthand with BCO so I can only go on pics (unfortunately that will probably be as good as it gets since they are next to impossible to get up here), but she from what I can tell from the full body shot, I wouldn't believe she is a pure BCO. She has a very interesting side pattern! She looks like some of the BCOxBCI crosses I've seen however. I'm sorry I can't help you with a positive ID. Some of the members have crosses here, maybe they wouldn't mind posting them?
Hey, Brian, I'm not doubting you. I just checked out the website, and it has me wandering now. She was sold to me as an Argentine. I thought that as they get older, they get darker. I don't know.

Heres a young BCO, the pics are dark but you can see the difference
Nick
Here is a nice pic.your snake looks like some kind of cross between a argentine and colombian boa could be wrong

I would say she is a cross.
