Anyone know what kind of BCI this is?

I was told red tail cross but i have also been told Nicaraguan Bci.

From what i have seen, the latter tends to be a dwarf. But i am struggling to cind the real answer.

i only want to know purely on the basis that i dont know (if that makes sense. I have bought her as a pet and not as a future breeding project.

Cheers peeps

Looks like a Sonoran (B.c.imperator) to me, but there can be so much variation amongst boas that it can be hard to tell with a few of the subspecies.

a better pic with his body straighter rather than curled round would also help

I'm with CDN on this looks Sonoran, but to be honest you may have to do a bit of scale counting to get a better idea, susing out the locality of some of the BCi localities needs Sherlock Holmes

1.0.0 Classic corn snake - Dodge,1.2.0 Normal Royal - Palin, Lyssa & sofia,1.1.0 vanilla royal - Baskin & Robbins, 1.0.0 granite royal - Detritus
1.1.0 crawl cay boas -Maya & Pech
1.0.0 Hypo hog island boa - Harley,0.1.0 Hog island Boa - Babe
oh maybe some more to come

Use a sharpie and colour in the ones you've already counted, then at the end you can sell her as a rare black boa morph :p
