2012 Hog Island Boa! (pics)

Here are a few shots of my 2012 female Hog produced by Reptile Rapture out of Madison, WI. Now, I need a male. Any good quality hogs around?

Very pretty!:)
It seems all boas have this funny mug look to them- and those pupils, wow!

what is the difference between a hog island and a normal, besides the coloration, or it the morph just called that?

They are dwarf boas from Cayos De Los Cochinos. The Island of the Hogs. The Hog Island boas have seen an increase in popularity in recent years. They are a very beautiful boa, being a naturally occuring hypomelanistic. An even more interesting aspect of their physiology is their ability to shift colors from day to night. At night their color lightens and some specimens become almost white on the anterior portion of their body, particularly the head and neck. The rest of the body takes on a lighter hue as well and their normal orange tail saddles are further highlighted.

Very well put. These pictures were taken mid-day so she was pretty colorful. Early in the morning she is super pale and her saddles turn grey. She also seems to like climbing more than a Red Tail. Care is pretty much the same as any BCI except they like slightly cooler temperatures. I still keep the temps at 81 at the cold end and 92 at the hot end with access to a 96 basking spot. She seems to do fine.
