They "look" very Brazilian to me but the only way to identify them is to count scales. 41 to 44 scale rows at midbody on a Peruvian Rainbow and 45 or more on a Brazilian. It can be difficult to count scale rows on them when they are adults and even harder when they are little. If they will hold very still for you while you are counting it helps greatly.
Even better, count the scale rows in a shedding. Of course you have to wait for one but that may be sooner than one holding still for you.

LOL, to many snakes to list, last count (05/26/2009):
36.51 BRB
29.42 BCI
And those are only the breeders 
lots.lots.lots feeder mice and rats 


A couple of good clear close up pictures could make it possible to count the rows of scales without handling the snake or waiting for a shed...

Thanks, Jeff and rainbowsrus
Seems like I have to count scales or scales in a shed when they grow up for the determination.
Ifm still wondering it impossible to determine by their appearance.
Are they really look like BRB?
