Looks like an Anery to me. Also might be a cross into the argintina boa

It might be an anery, but I would say probably not. It is a nice normal--
Saying that is not a bad thing. It is a unique normal nonetheless. If you breed it you can find out if it passes any of its looks to the babies....Good Luck!

thanks. yeah i was going to breed it to a normal but she wont be ready till next year.

Yes its a pretty looking normal Bci probably Colombian type Boa
It is a circle back (partial) laddertail "CBLT" with
some partial lateral striping ,
which in other words is connecting of the lateral medallions
I see pink or orange base color so that rules out Anery
If you were thinking it was a Motley Boa, its not.

I'd say not an anery due to the peach blush I see along the side in the last photo. Nice normal B.c.i. to me. It has traits that I have seen in many Central American boas.
