According to Google, it's a Rainbow Boa from Brazil. Not like any Brazilian I've ever seen though!

Do columbian rainbows get that color as adults? I've only seen baby pics of them and their colors don't pop like that.

Very cool rainbow though!

I was think Columbia or Guyanan, but after a little research i believe it's a morph. Out of the 9 subspecies It kind of sounds like a Caatinga Rainbow. I just can find any pics. Here a link that gives a description. The Rainbow Boa.co.uk - Rainbow Boa Care Sheets including: Brazilian rainbow boa, Argentine rainbow boa, Columbian rainbow boa, paraguayan rainbow boa, central highland rainbow boa,

Re: Brazilian? Really?

Another thought is it's possible it's photoshopped.
On boring days I take photos of snakes and photoshopping them to make them look cool
It's actually very easy after the first time if you have the right program(s)

That's just cruel! Lol Here I am drooling over another handful of epicrates, only to now think the really amazing examples are altered pictures! Gee, thanks, Youngster!

Lol

Happy New Year

Re: Brazilian? Really?

looks like someone took the snake and turned it negative while keeping the rest normal. What did you search when you found that? I couldn't find it.

If I remember correctly, I searched for "Epicrates."

Looks legit, says a doctor took the photo and something about copyright so I would think it's real actually.
