Looks to be a common bci
Not that Iām complaining because sheās still a beautiful snake, but we got her from a reptile shop that told us sheās a 100% het albino Sharpe
Het albino is recessive, so you wouldnāt be able to see this in the appearance.
So does that mean she could be? Sorry Iām new to all this and donāt know a great deal
Right, recessive genes are only visible when homozygous. When heterozygous, their appearance is unchanged. Hereās a decent tutorial:

She very well could be het Sharpā¦the only way to know for sure is to breed her to a visual Sharpā¦or get a āfor sureā 100% het Sharp from a reputable breeder. But keep in mind that a visual albino breeding to her would be the best option to prove her out. If you get visual albinos from the breeding (about half the litter should be visuals in a visual to het breeding)ā¦then you know for sure she is a het. I have seen het to het breedings not produce visual albinosā¦this is very rare but it does happenā¦het to het breedings will USUALLY result in about 25% of your litter being visual albinos. I have however never seen a het to visual breeding not produce visualsā¦not saying it could not happen, but I have never seen it. Good luck and congrats on your beautiful new boa!
