Judging by the saddles and tail, I'd say its a BCC of some sort. Probably Guyana, but hard to say without or knowledge of the breeder.

The saddles barely have peaks at all which some BCI do have, comparing from Guyana's I've seen in person and red tails online I don't see any BCC.

Almost everyone calls their boa's red tail boas whether it's a common or not. Most pet stores even label their common boas as red tails.

That looks like a BCI to me as well. BcI's can also have "peaks" in their saddles as well.

He is a bco i went back too the pet store to get a mouse and asked another person about the boa he said that it is a Argentinan boa because of the black spots i asked him how old he said they get them from the breeder at six mouths old and in dec so a little over a year old and thank you guys for helping me out with that. O and one more thing a argentinan boa is not a red tail right? And does this appear like any argentinan boas you have seen? I guess i am just like people i run into with dogs i ask what bloodline is he blue nose brindle well your dogs has a black nose and is fawn i asked the blood line not the color lol anyways. Weather or not its a red tail i still think its a bad as snake and too think the tail on the snake is what blew me away and want it so much lol.

100% not an Argentine boa. I think its safe to say that the pet store you got it from does not know much.

Whoever you spoke to knows nothing about boas. You have a common boa or Boa Constrictor Imperator.
