Can someone shed some light on my boa's locality?

This is slate, I was told slate is a red tail boa. But I honestly have little experience and can’t tell if slate is a BCC of a BCI.

Definitely BCI. Beautiful boa you have.

Thank you :grin: Slate is one of my favorite snakes, she was a little temperamental when I 1st got her but she’s gotten used to being handled regularly.

I just want to note that the continued nomenclature of BCC and BCI seems a bit odd now that Boa constrictor and Boa imperator are recognized as two separate species and no longer as subspecies of Boa constrictor.

Its the way its been for a long time so BCC and BCI is burned in memory. Same when they constantly change names of coral subspecies. Either way, its imperator nonetheless.

I believe so, until it changes again. Lol. You should’ve seen the stir when acanthastrea lordhowensis was changed to micromussa in the reef world! Lol.

“Sure, what your address?”
