Re: What Kind Of boa

Because they have reddish tails and they're boas, people automatically think they're red tail boas!
There's a 'red tail ball python' on craiglist near me at the moment.. I wonder if it's a boa.. or a python..

Re: What Kind Of boa

People have been breeding and mixing locality boas for years.

The one on craigslist.com does have a nice striped tail, he/she could be a genetic stripe.

I have a true dwarf Nic boa that some would say is a BCC when he is truely a BCI and will never be over 4ft long.

FYI:
B. c. amarali~Amaral's boa~Brazil, Bolivia and Paraguay


B. c. constrictor~Red-tailed boa~South America


B. c. imperator~Common northern boa~Central America and northern South America


B. c. longicauda~Tumbes Peru boa~Northern Peru


B. c. melanogaster~Ecuadorian boa~Ecuador


B. c. nebulosa~Dominican clouded boa~Dominica


B. c. occidentalis~Argentine boa~Argentina and Paraguay


B. c. orophias~St. Lucia boa~St. Lucia


B. c. ortonii~Orton's boa~South America


B. c. sabogae~Pearl Island boa~"Pearl Islands" off the coast of Panama

Cool looking boa with a striped tail. Genetic information unavailable so the snake is a cool looking boa with a striped tail...
