BCI or BCC?
I was just looking at a website ( http://www.boa-constrictors.com/com/com.html) and I'm a bit confused about my boa. How can I be sure if she's a Columbian BCI or if she's a Suriname BCC? She came from a reptile rescue group where her parents both reside. Thanks!

Simce yours is in shed, after it sheds you can count it's midbody scale rows to be 100% without a shadow of a doubt, sure on whether it is a BCC or a BCI. Referring to the Boa Constrictor Manual, it says that BCI have 55-79 and BCC have 89-95.
She definitely doesn't look like a Suri to me.

Try this one...
This is my female 'Colombian', although a bit of a bad picture. Would you say B.c.i. or B.c.c.? I have already decided what I deem her to be, just want to see wjat others would have an opinion on just by looking.
Here are the scale counts:
Dorsal/Midbody rows - 92
Inner Ocular scales - 19
Ventral plates - 240
Caudal plates - 50
