Boa imperator question

[Taffy]

This is not a dwarf b. imperator right?

What did the breeder or person you got it from say?

From the pic no way to tell if it’s a dwarf or just a young specimen, as far as I know

I don’t know why they’d say that. I’m not very experienced with boas though. You’ll know in a couple years for sure

Looks like a normal imperator, not like Tarahumara or any other dwarf...

Im into many of the small species. I own one myself.

You do realize any young boa could be called a dwarf and it’s total crap right?

I thought so, but wasn't sure. Of all the small species I know of, your boa doesn't look anything like them. However, you could contact an expert breeder, Vinny Russo. He's a nice guy and has bred many small boa species.IF I recall correctly there's a Central American locality that is considered dwarf. But remember, most dwarfs are 4-6ft. There are some elsewhere which are less than 36"

Might just be a dwarf impersonator for the time being.
