almost positive female is a bci, what say yous about the male and why?
Both bcis? - think so.

Looks like a BI to me. There’s a ton of natural variation between BIs. Most captive-bred BIs are a mix of different localities, so they can have a whole wide range of colours and patterns. There can be some pretty dramatic differences between individuals.

It’s also possible that one of your boas has a more subtle morph or line-bred trait, like maybe some sort of pastel. But I’m not knowledgeable enough to be able to identify that sort of stuff, so hopefully one of our boa experts might be able to offer a more well-informed opinion on whether or not something like that is at play here.

Beautiful boas! Some pictures in better lighting might help folks to better identify what’s going on with them.
