Invictus:
You don't have to write the book, just list your source so that you and I are on the same page.

HumphreyBoagart:
Please be more specific than Ivictus, and tell me what part of my statement was wrong. Is bci not native to north Mexico and western South America as stated in Glen Drewnowski's book? Or is it just that I didn't list all localities? This forum is for us herp lovers to "learn" and exchange ideas. I would be glad to sent you guys a list of the boa books I own so you can tell me which ones to throw out.
I have (1) Peruvian (3) Cloumbians, (1) Green Tree Python and (2)Carpets, All of which were bic ("Born in the USA") so you might say that my red-tails are "American Boas".

Sorry, I didn't feel it was necessary to "parrot" everything that Invictus said. I was just stating that I agreed with him, and disagreed with you.
It wasn't that you didn't list off the localities at all. It was that you were calling Bcc's "Common Redtails". I don't know maybe that's what you guys call them down there in the "show me" state, but up here we call Columbian Bci's "common redtails" and Bcc's are known as "true redtails".

Okay, I can understand the confusion. The book I was quoting from lists bcc under the heading "Common Boa". It also refers to them as "so called red-tails" because that is haw they are referred to in the pet trade. I had already apologized to Invictus for calling bcc "common", and would still like to know what your sources are so that I can add them to my library. I am no expert, but I do my homework. In several informational pieces that I have read, bcc and bci are each teferred to as Columbian Red-tails but not articles written by the same author.

That's probably because there are both, Columbian Bcc's and Columbian Bci's.

Yeah, according to what I read on www.boa-constrictor.com, columbian bcc is pretty rare, most columbians on the market are bci. Whould you agree? Do you know of anyone breeding columbian bcc?

Yep, I would agree, they are pretty rare. I have never heard of anyone owning one let alone breeding them, but that by no means doesn't mean anyone doesn't or isn't.
