Hi Hazzaram, I see that you have a BRB - this is next on my wish list. I love the look/coloring of the snake and have been doing some research (mostly on here) about the animal. How has your experience with this species been? I, like you, was looking for a smaller variety and the Hog Island fit the bill plus there was one at a store here (breeders in this part of Canada is a little bit hard to find although I may find out differently at the reptile show this weekend). He has been a super snake - curious enough, eats like a trooper, and spends a fair amount of time outside the hide. I love my ball python - she is gentle, beautiful and calm and loves to explore the house, but the boa is a quicker, stronger snake that makes the hobby so interesting. I cannot believe that I am so enamored by snakes but they are the best pet that I have ever owned.
