I bought a pair of Can Cun Mexican Boas about 4 years ago, Sold them, tracked down the male, bought it back, Posted pics and sent pics to just about every Locality breeder in the US, and every one of them said he doesn't look like a Can Cun....I fully trust the breeder that we bought them from, its just all the Can Cuns being worked with today look nothing like him, and I have never been able to find another one like him. I have had people say he is a Intergrade(Can Cun x Nic) and had many opinions as he might be a Venezulan, and Costa Rican Influence...I have had lots of opinions and they are all different...thats why we call him Enigma..lol
All I know is I bought him as a Can Cun years ago, the female had really thin saddles but the same coloration, that burnt orange look...
I am still kicking myself for selling her....But luckly I found the male...

Have you tried herping in the field in Can Cun? Bet you would find one like him that way if he is really from there. I am not saying you could just take him out of the wilds without permits etc. but if you really love his look it might be something to think about. He sure is neat looking.

Very cool boa, David. Have you showed this one to my buddy Mark? I think it is probably Central American in origin, or at least has CA blood in it. The pattern reminds me of a Sonoran boa, as well.
Sorry I missed you coming down this weekend, I hurt my neck,a nd it's all I can do just ot get to work on time.
