What is this?

Got this guy a few months back and I'm still not sure what he is. He was purchased from an ad on craigslist and was listed as a Hypo Jungle but the girl didn't have papers and did not remember the original breeders name. I couldn't pass him up for just $50. What do you guys think? His colors are always changing. He just shed last night and is showing a lot of oranges up his sides. Also the spots on his head always seem to change back and forth from dark to light as you can see in some of the pictures.

I don't know what all is going on with that little guy but I will tell you this; if he would have been born here on my watch, he would still be here and never would have been on Craigslist.

Congrats!

That is a sweet boa! You got a great deal because that is a keeper. I can't answer your question but I would keep it raise it and breed it. That way you'll know for sure what the genetics are.
