I have many pythons (balls and a burm), but yesterday I saw a red tail that I fell in love with. I don't know anything about boa genetics but this one looked real good. I think it said 100% het anery on its enclosure. I have two questions.. Whats BCC and BCI? and do they have more personality than my darn ball pythons? Oh, and I'll be buying him later today. Thanks

BCC is Boa Constrictor constrictor. It's a Sub-Species of Boa constrictor. They are found in South America and Trinidad/Tobago. But there are other Sub-Species in South America as well.

BCI is Boa Constrictor imperator, another Sub-Species of Boa Constrictor. They are found in North/Western Colombia (common opinion), and all through Central America (fact), and up through the mountain ranges into Mexico. Some are found on Islands along C.A. as well.

Yeah, ALL Boa Constrictor have more personality than Ball Pythons. LOL (head nodding vigorously)

I'm glad to hear they do have more personality than balls. They sure are pretty to look at when they aren't hiding though.. Thanks.

for my 4 hypo's i have a large 50 gallon show tank and inside i place manzanita branches under the heat light, and at night they love to play on that thing. I have a boa tree of the same i made for them before i feed or to clean out cages or to take pictures. don't have anything for the bigger fellas though except my porch banister and for the personality, when i have them out on the tree, they are always stretching towards me, always checking me out, they tilt their head and always looking around, love their personalitites.
