I would say Calico hypo.

I certainly have no first hand experience with calico or Paradox.
Have seen several calico line Boas in person and still unclear about it.
The last shot does show strange pigment,I'm no help.
I look at this Boa and see a Hypo probable Jungle that's it.

It's hard after a while to know if you are seeing what you really see or what you "want" to see.

after it shed, the saddles appeared more pinkish - like an albino - but the entire body has a "bleached" look. I also thought I was seeing a tinge of purple bordering the saddles.

it has black eyes, but a pinkish tongue...

it really just looks "different." It'll be interesting to see what happens with each shed.

thanks for the responses.

Great looking snake! Definitely Hypo and definitely Jungle. Were there any Albinos in the litter?
I am only aware of Paradox Albinos in het x het or het x Albino breedings.
What do people consider a Calico? Not the same as Paradox?

Damian from DMBreeders(.com)told me that Calico is abnormal
Red, Green, Purple ect coloration on the Body. Paradox is
considered to be on Albino's, which I dont think is entirely
true. Paradox is Opposite or Anomoly of. Normal or Albino IMO.
Again IMO. Damian Calls
this a Calico Sunset poss dh Sunglow, which I would call a
Paradox Sunset poss dh Sunglow. I heard Calico is splash o' White.

Sis is in dark mode Bro is in light

And the freak

I hope this helps for variety. Paradox and Calico are almost
considered the same. Have a great night!

my oddball with a normal hypo which i think is a jungle.

have any ideas about the oddball?

thanks
Patrick

Very nice animal! But it seems that it is on an Albino body.
Wouldn't that make it Paradox??
No disrespect, just want to further my horizons on Calico/Paradox
