I can't see what I would look for in either of those pictures. The thing I would look for lessens as they mature. Boas change as they grow. What I look for can mainly be seen in babies. I can see this "marker" in only one of my adult 100% proven hets.

Of course, what I look for may not be what someone else would look for. My theory hasn't been proven to be helpful in choosing hets yet. I have 2 more years before my female possible hets mature. Then I'll find out if it worked for me.

BTW I didn't keep any males. I'm using an adult Albino male to try and prove out my females.
