that's a nickname slapped on by the pet trade for marketing purposes...

Colombians are bci and are not true redtails like bcc are.



I have descrived the difference as looking at a tree in the fall with multi colored leaves and saying it has an overall red appearance (common colombian bci), and then looking at a bright red fire engine (bcc{ surinam, guyana, peruvian, brazilian, etc.})



take care, Joe
