As Tsubaki said, if it is a BCO cross (which I agree that is big possibility), it will darken with age and get at least a little spotty.
I wouldn't officially claim it as anything, though, since you don't 100% know its lineage. If you ever sell it, it should be sold like any other common boa of unknown lineage.

I agree with that for sure. I think that it does look very similar pattern wise to the pic above, which is what initially led me to think it might be Argentinian. It is also quite variable in color and sometimes looks much more silver than it does in the pictures that I posted of it. I am not looking to sell it at all, never planning to. My main interest in identification has now shifted to identifying if it is, or isn't possibly a Cay Caulker or Crawl Cay - as I have learned that the feeding requirements are different and can be harmful if it were to be fed as I would a non dwarf boa. Time will tell of course, but I wouldn't want to be needlessly underfeeding it either. From what I can piece it would likely be much smaller at 4 months if it was indeed a dwarf species, however I have no way to confirm the age I have to be the truth.
