Alot of people said that my snake was not an Argentine, and so I took better pics in hopes of getting everyones opinion. She behaves very well, very active and non agressive she is Thanks for your earlier comments, if she's not a Argentine I'm curious to fnd out what kind she is hehe.

I'd say it has to be at least part Central American or Mexican
based on the dark color, shape of the saddles and the number of
saddles. The saddles are close together and there seems to be
plenty of them.

Argentinians are just like Chris Rocks HBO special Bigger and
Blacker... Central american boas are smaller.

Looks like some type of central american boa to me. Looks similar to my nicaraguans.

Good luck

Again, most likely of Central American descent...
it's possible he crossed a bco with a cancun pci to get some of the peach and orange mixed in? who knows... it does look somewhat nicaraguan but not fully... my opinion..

Looks alot my female boa from the Tarahumara Mts., Mexico. I will get some good pics of her and post them so we can compare. Does not look like an Argentine at all, but a very beautiful snake none-the-less. Derek
