BCC question

sean1976 Jun 12, 2008 04:11 AM

Do any BCC keep a gray or silvery background color?

I am somewhat interested in BCI and BCC but am not always sure if pics I am seeing are neonate or adult. I have seen some BCA adult pics with silver/grey background color but no BCC or BCI that I could verify were adults.

Any info would be great.

Sean.

Some do, some don't. I have a Female that goes from that metallic grey to light tan depending on her mood, and she's over 5ft. and mature.

They do seem to change with their mood and, from what I’ve seen, most of them tan or buckskin out as they get older.
This girl has kept a little bit of it on the sides and mixed it with purple.

If you like silver snakes, I think Bolivians keep pretty nice silvers and greys into adulthood... although maybe not the type of boa you had in mind! I'd like a pair of those someday!

Ideally I would like the bolivian silverback color for the body but with a more significant tail. All of the Bolivan Silverbacks I am familliar with are BCA(short tailed).

Currently I am leaning towards Brazillian BCC when I decide to make the jump but am still undecided.
