I've got a small male albino boa less than a year old whose
body gets noticably thicker after about 3 inches down. He's
still pretty small. He's very healthy and a great eater.
I've had plenty of boas and other snakes, but I don't remember
seeing a boa like that before. Usually they get progressively
thicker slowly. This guy gets thicker all of a sudden and then
his body is proportionate.
Maybe he has some Argentine blood in him? What could it be?
I'll post a pic tomorrow...
I chock it up to differences in build. Some people have differences in build too. My snake built like that is a half sister to two others I have, and they do not display this trait. The girl that has the little 'body builder' build is short and wide too. I think it's cool looking. Viva la deffierence" eh?

Never had a BCO, they're supposed to be stockier...
It's cool don't get me wrong. I also thought it might be some
kind of defect...
I see this trait in my colombian, and have noticed differences in 'build' on BCCs too. I have another female who has that look too.
