Strange Boa or Just Me

I did my usual cricket run today and walked past all the snake cages in the local pet store as I usually do. I never pay too much attention to what they have because for the most part its hypo hondurans, albino corns, veiled chameleons, normal ball pythons blah blah. Today however I walked past a tank with some boas in it, and one actually made me stop and do a double take. I am assuming they were all central american, typically coloration, head pattern, and tail pattern but these guy looked very different. Here are some pics, let me know what you guys think, Im kind of baffled by it. He is on hold for a week for me so any of you MDers tough luck. Anyway let me know if I am excited for nothing. The thing that caught my eye were those orange stripes

Almost looks sort of motley-ish. I'd snag it, too!

Looks sorta Motley-ish to me too. Hard to say. I've had a few Nics, and although some similarities are present, I never seen one with that reddish dorsal lateral stripe before.

It appears to be something left over from a Sonoran litter.
Probably cheap enough to warrant the purchase,

Go For IT !

Looks like a very nice red Central American. You usually see the nice circle back patterns with most central american babies. Possibly an import. But nice snag for sure. Especially out of a pet store.

Cool. I'd be tempted too if I happened upon something like that.

I saw this snake in person today! These pictures do not do justice. It doesnt just have the two stripes, its got faint ones on both sides also. Great find ryan!
