Hey Robert,
If the parents are not from the known Swedish line of jungles, then you cna't pass it out as a jungle even if it looks like one. But to answer your question, jungles tend to be light, and yellow cream colored on the dorsal part of their bodies, and/ or they'll have low to high aberrancies in their pattern. This is in the heterozygous form of course.
If you suspect that your boa may have this jungle gene, you will have to prove it out by breeding it to a known jungle. If there are any notable super jungles in that litter, then breed one of those out ot a normal boa and see if you get an entire litter of jungle boas....that would be the only way to prove it is fromthis line of jungles...which by my knowledge is the only line of proven jungles that exists. otherwise you might thave a whole other morph that you can prove out yourslef. Either way it's many years away.
not trying to get you discourged, but it is what it is.
Thanks,
Kevin Ivens
