However, a Lucy boa is always going to be just that, a Lucy boa. You cannot manipulate the color, you cannot change how the eyes look, it is just going to be a white boa.
Unlike in Ball Pythons where Lucy animals are often the Super Forms of another morph, shoving as many morphs into a PD as possible is not going to change the end result of what will ultimately result.
That aside, I believe "The Diamond" is a BCA and his offspring are BCA mutts which attributes to the "unique" look of the Hets.

There is a website that talks about it a little. Seems like Brandon Nixon knows a thing or two, as we have talked on facebook about it and he mentions it in this forum here:

I would love to see this pairing. I am gonna talk to Jeff about this and see what he says.
