    Rumor has it that hogg island boas are aggressive.

    Sunglows are in the 400 to 600 dollar range. Might find one at an expo for around 350.

    Albinos are anywhere from 200 to 350. Maybe 150 at an expo.

    hog Islands are great boas! In my experience males are friendlier than females, but it all depends on how much you handle them I think. Our second boa was a Hog and I love him! hes the sweetest boy ever! never bit me- let me handle him when he was in shed and not too happy in general...

    cant wait to see pics of the new addition

    I've worked with a load of Hog Islands, they are one of my favorite snakes. I've never met any that were truly aggressive. If they have a full belly sometimes they won't be shy at hissing and letting you know they are not in the mood. But most are 100% sweet hearts.
