Stand-Out Features
This T+ Aztec Motley male represents a fantastic intersection of striking pattern and proven genetics. The “Aztec” influence creates those bold, clean dorsal patterns that run the length of the body, while the Motley gene smooths out the saddles and enhances the lateral markings. The T+ (Tyrosinase Positive) albinism gives you those warm, creamy yellows and oranges that will only intensify with age, without the red eyes of a standard albino. In our hands, the build quality of this animal is immediately apparent—it’s robust, well-muscled, and alert, matching or exceeding what you’d expect from this breeder’s reputation. We source from a reliable seller with consistently positive feedback, and that reliability translates directly to the animal you receive.

Strengths and Weaknesses
✅ Pros:
- Outstanding Pattern: The Aztec gene delivers one of the cleanest, most geometric dorsal patterns in boa morphs. Combined with Motley, it creates a truly unique animal.
- T+ Coloration: You get the stunning albino colors without the light-sensitive red eyes, which many keepers prefer.
- Proven Reliability: From our reliable seller, this animal’s feeding response and hardiness are exactly what experienced keepers look for. In our care, it has shown a strong and consistent feeding drive.
- Great Foundation Animal: As a male with three desirable genes (T+, Aztec, Motley), he’s an excellent candidate for future breeding projects to produce even more complex morphs.
- Confirmed Quality: The measured weight and overall condition align with a healthy, well-started juvenile, which is a key detail we verify.
❌ Cons:
- Price Point: At this level, you’re paying for specific genetics. It’s an investment for a serious keeper or breeder, not a first snake.
- Availability: Triple-gene combos like this aren’t always available. When they are, they tend to move quickly from reputable sources.
- Color Development: Like all T+ animals, the full orange and yellow saturation will develop over time. He won’t have his final adult color for a couple of years.
Best For
Buy if: You’re a boa enthusiast looking to add a visually striking, genetically interesting animal to your collection. This is a great choice for someone who appreciates the Aztec pattern and wants the albino colors without red eyes. It’s also a solid pick for a breeder seeking a quality male to pair with Aztec, Motley, or Albino females.
Skip if: You’re looking for your very first snake, or your budget is strictly under $500. If you have your heart set on the bright white and red-eyed look of a standard albino, this isn’t it.
Your Questions Answered
How big will this boa get?
As a Boa imperator (Colombian/common boa), a healthy male like this will typically reach a manageable adult size of 5 to 7 feet in length, with a sturdy, muscular build. They are not as massive as true Red-Tailed Boas (B. constrictor).
What does “T+ Aztec Motley” mean?
It’s a combination of three genetic traits. “T+” is Tyrosinase Positive Albino, producing yellow/orange color with dark eyes. “Aztec” refers to a pattern gene that creates bold, geometric dorsal markings. “Motley” reduces the saddle count and can create a cleaner, more connected pattern along the back and sides.
Is this a good feeder?
In our observation, animals from this breeder have a strong feeding response. This specific line has shown reliable feeding habits on appropriately sized frozen-thawed rodents. A consistent feeding history is something we always note when evaluating an animal for our catalog.
How is the temperament?
We’ve found this male to be calm and handleable, displaying typical boa curiosity. As with any snake, regular, gentle handling helps maintain a docile temperament. He’s not defensive or nervous in our hands.
What are his breeding possibilities?
He’s a fantastic breeder prospect. Pairing him with a female carrying any of his genes (Albino, Aztec, Motley) or even a normal female will produce interesting offspring. For example, bred to an Aztec female, you’d get Aztec babies that are 100% heterozygous for T+ and Motley.
Where can I buy T+ online?
You’re looking at him. We have this specific T+ Aztec Motley Male available here at Morphdirect. We source directly from the breeder, verify his health and genetics, and ship safely from our Boise facility. Our customer satisfaction data for this morph is 4.4 out of 5 stars.
How do I care for a boa like this?
Provide a secure enclosure (eventually a 4’x2’x2′ for an adult), a thermal gradient from 78-80°F on the cool side to 88-90°F on the warm side (with a regulated heat source), humidity around 60-70%, and hiding spots. Feed an appropriately sized frozen-thawed rodent every 7-14 days depending on age and size.
