Wow that boy has some very nice color but just based on looks alone and with out any knowledge of its origin I would have to go with a Colombian/Suriname cross. The head and body color are with out a doubt a BCI (Northen Colombian/ Central American Boa) But the nice red in the tail and peaked saddles give hints of some BCC blood, the peaking in the saddles would take most Peruvian Boas off the chart so I would guess a Suri cross of some sort.

Thanks
