There are no pure albino bcc genes from what ive read. Only bci albinism crossed into them.

Hets won't look "het" either...

There are not pure Peruvian albinos. If someone sold you an "het Albino Peruvian," it is either an outcross or a lie. As for how they look, they should have some traits from both parents, look like something in between.

i you have a het albino boa it will look normal,it being het means it holds the gene for albinism there is no way to prove this. just use a reliable breeder.

IT WILL NOT HAVE TRAITS FROM BOTH PARENTS

if the mother or father is albino and the mother or father is normal
you will have a normal boa with the albino gene..

I didn't mean that it would have albino traits, I meant that it would have BCI traits. Ballpythonlover, your snake cannot be both a pure BCC and het for albino. It is either a BCC, a BCI, a BCI het for albino, or an intergrade het for albino. You won't know whether it is a het for sure until you breed it out, and if you post a pic, we can give an opinion as to it's subspecies/locale.
