pet stores always tend to sell normal "common" Columbians as "red tails" - it probalby makes them easier to sell then calling then "Common Boas." I would say yours is a common BCI, and not a BCC, which would be a true red-tail. But that is a good thing, as they tend to be easier to care for.

I agree completely with the other two as far as keeping the pair together. I wouldn't do it. Quarentine should be practiced, plus you don't know who's got what and who's doing what if they are together. It will also be more difficult for them both to receive adiquate heat, especially if the big one is hogging the hot spot. My boas only come together during breeding season, and then are separated.
