Okay here is the story on this snake.

This is a 06 Male. He was the only one in his litter to look this way. His parents where to normals that were unrelated.
All his siblings looked like normal common BCI. He came out looking this way.

He has not changed in color in any way since he was born. He has looked this way from day one and never changes colors at all.

He has zero Hog in him. I get asked this a lot.

He has zero black on him too. His colors range from pink, to sandy brown and orange, to dark brown.
His eyes are white with a pink base.

To me he has a striking resemblance to the original T+ that was bought by the Barkers. Has a somewhat similar back story too.

Been trying to bred him to get a project going for a few years now. Sadly he is just a big old lazy male and I have not been able to get him to show any interest in a female.

Would like to find out one day is I can make copies of him thou.

Here are some pictures.
This first picture is two years old. He is bigger now. LOL.

Haha. I know. I get that a lot. :dunno:

I guess only time will tell. Hell, maybe he was just to close to the cooker when his mom was gravid. :lmao:

Hahaha.
No. Everything we own only eats 1 meal once every 2 weeks. And we don't feed any larger then jumbo rats.

He is not even our biggest male. And we have a few females fed the same way that is 8-9.5 feet and much thicker then him.

We also have male and females that are the same age as him and only 4.5-6 feet.
Some just have the genetics to grow.

:eek: Whoa. He's nice. To not have any hogg in him, but the look is interesting. Reminds me more of the lighter northern variety. Not quite central localities, but close. I have had odd boas from normal pairings. Had a couple in one litter that had no black freckles. Nothing ever like yours though. I'd say definite dinker project.
Get multiple professional opinions and see what is consistent. That could give you an idea of what's gong on.

Here is a question for you. Are you 100% sure it is a male? Have you ever tried placing it with a proven male just to see? Some females can probe deep giving the false impression of sex. Just a thought.

Great looking snake.

I'm with Warren on this one.. Judging by the size and the feeding regiment you have them on I'd say it a she instead of a he...
