My guess is this is a Columbian Red Pastel?

Here are the pics...

that is a very nice Colombian, definitely showing Pastel traits, but you really can't call it pastel unless it's from a known line.

Where did you pick up that beauty?

Yes it's nice and carries Pastel qualities .

" but you really can't call it pastel unless it's from a known line. "
------ This statement is not true . Pastels can pop up in any litter, but typically happen from Pastel breedings. Their are known lines and you can't call a Pastel a Pastel Dream, or Summit Pastel, unless they are from those specific lines.
There are many Boas being called Pastels, that really don't look like Pastels (and they aren't) , so I appreciate the starter of this thread asking for opinions, instead of pasting labels that don't fit.

Thanks, I'm actually watching it for someone. The poor thing got bitten by a rat and almost lost it's tail. Since then it hasn't eaten in about four months although it finally ate a f/t rat last night. Once I get it back on track I will give it back to the owner. I just couldn't figure out why type of snake it was and just needed some opinions. It's really pretty with dark shades of brown and red.

The snake looks like its in shed but doesnt look pastel to me, saddles are dark not washed out like a pastels.

Looks like a normal to me. I have one that looks very similar.

Looks too dark to be a pastel.
