It sounds to me like these are "expensive boas". Since this deal was made in person, at the breeders house.... I think both parties are at fault.
The breeder is at fault for not sexing them correctly in the first place.
The buyer is at fault for assuming the breeder sexed them correctly. Like I said, it sounds like these are expensive boas. It would be the customer's right to double check the sexes. I know I would have.
BTW I'd be curious as to how the boas were sexed. Were the popped, probed, or rub tested?? Popping is 100% accutate for sexing males. It's mostly accurate for females too. The rub test is 100% accurate for both males and females if done correctly. Probing..... Well, probing "can" be very accurate for both sexes. Unfortunately if it's down wrong...... A female can be "accidentally penetrated much deeper than she should have been. That would make the person doing the sexing think it's a male. BTW I don't think baby boas should ever be probed, but that's just my opinion.
Anyway I think the customer should go back and double check the sexes on both snakes. That way there'll be no doubt as to the sexes.
Now there's a deal in writing for 2 female boas. A deposit was left for 2 female boas. Unfortunately one of them was actually a male. I still say that the breeder is only obligated to deliver 2 females. If he can't come up with one as nice or nicer than the one that turned out to be a male..... Then a full refund is in order. That is, unless they can come to an agreement that makes both parties happy.
