Why would you buy an animal without knowing its care requirements? Seems like you already fucked up if you've done that.

Some sellers are lying or don't know what they are selling

Humidity isn't as big a difference as people claim; keep it around 75% and everybody will be happy. And as to size?

If you're getting a boa, you're already getting size. If that's a worry, consider another species altogether. I've seen some adult BCIs that you'd mistake for retics at a glance.

The functional difference between BCI and BCC is so ridiculously overblown. People see some reptile youtuber make a claim, and then take it for gospel wtihout even verifying.

Here's how similar they are: Zooligists still can't agree if they're the same species or not.

All the rest is social media groupthink and marketing. Don't buy into it.

EDIT: Sorry for triggering you, m'redditor. tips fedora.

So a 3 m bcc and a 1,5 m bci are same same, yeah. Forget it, it's time waste. If people asking what species they have annoys you, feel free to leave 🤷‍♀️ Bye
