Hi, I just picked this girl up in a trade. This is my first boa so I was curious what you guys say it is.

Well I was told she is a jungle hypo that is pos. het albino/anery I believe. I know very little about the boa morphs, so I just wanted to see what some people on here thought the morph was. She could have been a normal for all I knew.

She wouldn't really cooperate enough for me to get pictures of just her side but here are a couple more. Thanks for the feedback!

I tried to get a few better pictures of her back and side but she really isn't a sit still for pictures kind of girl. Hopefully these will be good enough

i would say possible jungle but hypo definitely and the blotching could be het albino like i said before
but im not a boa expert and this is only opinion on what i have been told and what i have read so please take it at face value

Thanks for letting what you think. Hopefully someone can let me know for sure at a reptile show here in April. Now I just need to figure out how I'm going to keep her when she gets full grown. I'm used to kings and sand boas who take up far less room.
