Named for the city of Bluefields where the breeding stock originates from. Size: Males average 4.5 to 5.5 feet / Females 5.5 to 6.5 - largest 35 lbs at 7 feet.
Unlike the commonly imported "Central Americans" from the Pacific side of Nicaragua, very few people have ever seen these boas, which range from the area of Pearl Lagoon in the north all the way south towards Costa Rica on the east coast of Nicaragua. Some specialists suggest that "Columbian" type genes are represented on this side of Central America along the coast north through Panama, Costa Rica and this portion of Nicaragua. These boas are more closely related to Costa Rica geographically than to the Pacific Ocean side of Nicaragua. Perhaps they are also more closely related genetically.
Note the great light color, lateral rosettes, saddling and head markings. I have found that the tangerine nuchal (neck) blotch is a trademark of the Bluefields Boas along with the large amounts of tangerine marbling within the saddles.
