The outcome will still be a plain ol' boa.
You will merely be mixing genetics without creating anything unique. This cross has been done many times over the years and you will find it hard to sell your babies.
If you wish to hybridize, try to make a bigger jump. Perhaps a Redtail x yellow anaconda or Redtail X Rainbow.
That way if there is ever a loss of documentation as your offspring get sold and resold and resold, the babies will still be visually different enough to tell that they are indeed hybrids. You will not be able to tell any diff between your propsed hybrids and pure BCC or BCI.
