Looks like a Salmon or Hypo BCI to me. But could also be a cross.

Isn't a Salmon a type of hypo?

[BC Arboreals]

Yes Salmon and Hypo are the same thing, Hypomelanistic boa but some come from different lines as there is a few different hypo line out there. Some call them hypos some call them salmons. It looks like a hypo het coral albino I use to have, beautiful boa and looks healthy.

Salmons are hypo's but not all hypos are salmons.

[Tsubaki]

I say Hypo.

All Salmons are hypo's, and they are genetically the same. They are both caused by the hypo gene, which reduces melanine. But only Hypo's which can be tracked back to Rich Isle Salmon lines are Salmons. Since Salmons are his 'pedigree' line of Hypo's, bred as pink as possible. Everyone should just call it a Hypo unless they can trace it back to Rich Isle. But they're basically kind of the same thing, any hypo is called a salmon here in the Netherlands.

Hypos tend to have reduced saddles too and I'm not seeing that in this guy.

He's nice, whatever morph he is. Good job on the rescue.
