    I started a thread on this not long ago (sorry I don't know how to post a link to it) and I was referred to Vin Russo / cuttingedgeherp.com, Legacy Reptiles / legacyreptiles.com, and Jimi Reed / jimisnakes.com.

    I contacted Chad Duggin when I started that thread and he told me that he no longer breeds Hog Islands. I think that I mention that later in that thread. I also contacted Vin Russo and he told me that he's expecting some July-Sept. but he has a waiting list that you have to be put on (that was for some of his light colored Hogs, not sure about his others). Legacy Reptiles did have some pure Hogs for sale on their facebook page a couple of weeks ago.

    Gus Rentfro (Rio Bravo) is on sabbatical (for lack of a better term) and has removed his website. At this time, he is no longer in operation. :(

    Chad Duggin is no longer working with Hog Islands, although he's a great guy and may be able to recommend someone.

    Vin Russo and Legacy Reptiles are both great choices for Hogs. There is no one other than Vin I would personally go to.

    New Hog Island Boa female!
    I am excited to say that my new Hog Island Boa will be arriving on Thursday! She is coming from Vin Russo at cutting edge Reptiles! He is signing and sending me a copy of his book on Boas as well, so I cant wait to read it!

    Thanks for the referrals:)
