    Today's Addition => Hog Island Boa

    Here's my new female Hog Island
    CB 2011.
    exactly 375gr, for a little less than one meter.

    I'd like to know your opinions if she seems pure or not.
    I'm not a hog expert, but i wanted a pure one and the seller showed me the paper from the breeder.
    Is Her weight good for her age and size?? She's really as long as my balls but i can't believe she's only 375grams, what kind of prey should i feed her?I got some mice, some rats, my albino sharp is on small rat should i give her some small rats as well?So she has just a noticeable bulge?
    Isn't she too thin for a 2 year old female hog?

    I'm no Hog expert, but I'd say she's a pure Hog Island Boa....and a great looking one at that!! Not sure how big a 2011 Hog should be, but she looks very healthy. She should be able to take down a small rat, so start her out on one of those every 10-14 days. I bet she'll start growing like a weed.

    I really like the head development on that snake. Very nice, healthy looking animal.
