wanting to know if you think that this snake has anery characteristics
Link

Yes. That is a sweet looking boa, and it appears to my
eyes to be anery, but I don't really have any experience with
morphs. So lets see what the general consensus is...

I agree. Looks anery to me. Very nice looking too.

I’d have to deviate from the popular consensus, although the animal is beautiful and very light I don’t believe it is an anery. There are very miniscule hints of pink in the animal as well as uncharacteristic traits of a general anerythristic BCI. What is the lineage/background on the animals and or the adults that produced it? That will obviously give us a lot more insight into the animal. Beautiful none the less!

The only way to really tell if it is a random genetic anomaly is to breed it to another ‘proven’ anery. If you get all anery babies then it is, if they all look normal then it’s not.

Best,

I'd have to agree with Justin. Years ago anerys wernt as clean as they are now and more of them looked a little less distinct as "pastel anerys" do now. But Justin is giving good advice to prove it out before taking it to the bank. Lovely boa, Dan.

I saw that boa advertised, I have several anery's and I would say no that is not an anery. True the boa doesn's have much red coloration to it, but I have to say no...not anery.
