Columbian Boa BCC?

Sold to me as a descendant of animals acquired by Russ Lockenwitz that were originally in the collection of Lloyd Lemke.

Beautiful snake, just can't find her a mate...

She's a good lookin gal, basically looks Peruvian

There are a couple Colombian Bcc around (lower Colombia , Amazon basin type )

I'm not certain any are available that I've heard of

They look far more "Colombian" than this one.

I remember seeing several pictures of The Lockenwitz Group when
younger ,they had big Colombian type tails

There are a couple people in the same boat looking for
pure type Colombian Bcc breeding lines

I got that female from Gray Rushin back in 07. He purchased a pair from Russ back in 03 but the male passed away. I agree that her patterns and colors look like peruvians, but the head is not as long and wide, and does not have the strong markings of a typical peruvian.

Here is a 07 male I got from HellFire Reptiles, advertised as Columbian BCC. The parents of this snake were produced by Jeff Ronne. They were named "White Columbians" back then.

Thankyou I see her tail better in that picture.

She's a pretty gal , coming from Gray means alot , in other words
you know it came from Russ for certain then.

Jeff does have some Colombian Boas that scale count Bcc
I believe most maybe are more "Nothern types" maybe.

I saw else where Jeff had a pair of these Amazon basin type
Colombians way back when . I forget now exactly the details
but Tom Burke ended up with that pair and
produced babies from them.

I think '03 or '04 was the last time any were offered
Denny & Cathy Rimes have one from that line I believe
