Red Tail Boa morphs are the genetic variations of the common type snakes found in the wild. Columbian boa morphs include color variations like the hypo morph. Hypo is short for hypomelanistic and refers to the reduction of black pigmentation which results in a faded pink colored snake. Another morph is the motley boa and this is a pattern mutation. Motley boas have a connected dorsal pattern and a patternless side. They also have a very bold look to them with lots of contrast. One of the best looking red tail boa morphs is the sunglow boa.
