    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

You can really only go off what the breeder says.

Harlequins are variable in appearance.

It may or may not be one.

I would say it does not look like one, but with that particular line it's not a dead set list of traits.

If you are unsure, do not call it one.
 
Was your boa purchased from Tim Koppenhoffer? It looks like one of the ones he had at a show recently.
 
I agree with Diem. It's not the look I would expect from a harli x harli color-wise, the main trait I could see being from the harlequin line is how clean the snake is and the look of the lateral diamonds. Maybe you can get photos of the parents too?
