Yeah, looking more closely, its either a BCI or BCI/BCC cross.

Re: Red tail boa

Hi would say its a bci looks just like my one yours has a bit ov red in the tail but some bci do have red tails and that is what makes it so easy for pet stores to sell a lot ov the bci as bcc to people that dont really know what they looking for. Lovley snake tho

Re: Red tail boa

Yeah to be honesty its not a big deal if its not i just can't find any pics of bci that look like my snake. But i am curious to learn more about boa's and how to see the differences in them.are there any good books or documentarys on them? It does bother me slightly that i was bamboozled lol by the pet shop i will go back and ask again what type of boa it was that they sold me as the do seem to move snakes and since i asked a person that didnt sell me the snake i will giyve them the reasonable doubt that he thought i was talking about a different snake did they know and intentionally try to trick me or maybe they just dont know the dif between a bci or a bcc.i should have been more educated but like my brb it was a spur of the moment kind of deal and the snake was to pruty to pass up lol.

Re: Red tail boa

I cant wait to get the cage for it a guy at work has a cage he used to keep his albano Burmese in he said i can have it he used to keep alot of reptiles. I most emit i feel weird with him just giving it to me but its for the better of the snake maybe ill try and slip him some money or help him out in someway. Damn theres a adult dumeril for sale for $95 i need to stop buying snakes for a while must..... resist....

Re: Red tail boa

Don't worry, its a boa lol. Just refer to it as a BCU (Boa Constrictor Unknown) for the time being. Regardless of the species or locality, its a very good looking boa and you have many years of enjoyment ahead of you. If you get the cage from that guy, make sure to disinfect it very well before using it. Was it an adult burm that he kept in it? If so, you should just keep your boa in a tub for the time being. Too big of a cage can stress out a young snake. I wouldn't pass up a free cage though!
Oh, and $95 is a killer deal on a Dumeril's, too.

Re: Red tail boa

Id like to add that most of my bci collection has peaks, they do show up in bci. The pics still say bcc especially that tail shot. Just my opinion...
