The difference in this animal from all other Colombian Boas is specifically the little light stripe at the border of the saddles. The saddles on all other Boas extend at least all the way to the edge of the dorsal portion of the back where "Saddle Points" most of the time continue, but not this little girl.
1. There are plenty of other Boas with squared off saddles.
2. There are plenty of other Boas that almost look Anerythristic.
3. There are plenty of other Boas with only 20 total crossbars from head to tail tip although this is very unusual for a "normally" patterned Colombian that is not missing saddles.
4. The tail pattern is 7 or 8 tail markings long making it typical for most Colombians.
5. The single spot pale pattern element within many of the saddles is odd.
6. The rear 2/3 of the animal has nearly no "Saddle Points" whatsoever and those that are there, are still separated from the saddles by that pale light line.
Did the imports that you sold have this distinguishing and differentiating pale line like this one has? If so, perhaps someone that purchased some of these will post pictures of them. I haven't seen any before. By the way, this one is 2 1/2 years old. She will be three next year.
