My first BC -- what have I got here?

I picked up a lot of (I know, I know, y'all don't want to hear about it, but...) ball pythons today, and this girl was included with them.

I was told she's a BCI, and that she is supposed to be a hypo salmon, but I really don't know my boas well enough to have any idea. Heck, I wasn't intending on OWNING a boa at this point, but... she's an AWFULLY pretty pink snake.

(Photos were taken outside, with no flash, in full sunlight)

Very nice BCI hypo,hang on to that one for a good while and you'll see what
you've been missing by only working with those tub slugs.
Very nice animal,nice and clean and likely albino het.

Nicest "ball python" I've ever seen. ;-)

She's certainly more active than my balls, she's a quick and squirmy mover like my corns. I had to make grabs at her a couple of times when I was photographing her.

Bit more attitude, too, though. It may be just "settling in" as I just got her yesterday, but she strikes the air when I open the tub, and she did so at her former's owner's house, too -- she said she always got her out with a hook. Once she was out, though, she was pretty good-natured and didn't mind being handled.

(I did the photo shoot of her immediately out of the transport bag, then tubbed her, and only opened it once after that to fill her water dish, I'm giving her a few days to settle in before I mess with her again.)

I'm already pretty fond of her, I always intended to get a red or pink morph when I did get a boa, and she's quite lovely. Now I just need to figure out a name for her!

She is nice. Striking at you when you open just means she will probably never miss a meal lol. Great pick up

Yeah, I've been told she's an "eat everything garbage disposal" type of snake, and I don't doubt it from her attitude so far
