I just picked this girl up as a Surinam, but this thing screams N. Brazilian to me..........

She is sweet, I considered her as well about a month ago. The only thing is she has the thinner saddles of a Suriname, but the B.c.c from The southern most borders of Suriname and Guyana probably do look like the northern Brazilian. True north Brazilian's are still pretty rare in the hobby and thankfully most the people working with them have kept them pure. I wish more of us had the self control and patience to keep our B.c.c pure!
Best of luck

She's not an import, shes been through a few hands, one I know has confused things in the past before. I've seen alot of the known Southern Suri's, and the only thing consistant with N. Brazilians were the tail blothches. Color and pattern were never consistant compared with the N. Brazilians, which have a semi-specific look, color and pattern wise. After all, they are descended from just a handfull of founders.

You got it, I will try to post some pics of a n.Brazilian I have that has a huge red tail like a Suriname, also some pics of a south Surinmae with a short red tail. Unless we know for sure should we call them all B.c.c? I love the boas for all they show and all they hide.
