I believe Peruvians generally have thinner saddles than most boas, but I know this is definetely not always the case. They are usually born like a 'normal' colored boa, but as they mature they begin to develope distinctive yellow coloring. Mine started getting color at a little less than a year old. I have noticed many Peruvians have a speckled appearance, but with smaller dots than say, a Colombian or something. I have also seen many Peruvians extremely clean, like Barry Miller stock. The ones that are speckled are kind of a different type of speckled than a common boa... hope some of that made sense... I am not an expert-I'm just saying what I have noticed. You could post a pic of the boa in question and I'm sure many on this forum would give you their best guess at the locality. I've attached a link to the album with my peruvian in it if you'd like to check it out. They can differ in appearance quite a bit though. Mine is about 2 years old. http://www.printroom.com/ViewAlbum.asp?userid=Coal&album_id=144727
