    Whoa!!

    I just fed my new Hog Island for the first time. Her feeding response is awesome! I had to feed her a 2 fuzzies, instead of a hopper(she'll be on rats by next feeding) and I was just amazed at her ferocity when feeding. It just seemed really different than when my balls feed.

    Nice!, do you have any pics of her up?

    I'm looking into boas, and am not sure what to get, so drooling over pictures has been great lately.

    Sounds like Stage 1 Boaddiction. You better call a doctor...

    Our Hog even made us create a name for that feeding response. We call it a "Snatch" when they yank it out of your hand/tongs before you know what happened.

    BPs are more like a linebacker.

    ha ha boa feeding response can be quite a bit different than bp's for sure. The odd ball for me is an '04 male who doesn't grab the food and won't eat in front of anyone. I feed f/t so I just leave it in and it disappears when I check in a half hour. Any other boas I've had will take anything you give em at any time.
