    Hog Island Boa Price

    What's the average price for a pure Hog Island Boa. I figure between 100 to 150 depending on the characteristics. Also, maybe Pearl and Corn Island Boas as well. Out of that lot which tend to have the best dispositions. This is opinion only. Thanks in advance for all your input, have a couple of expo's coming up.

    Re: Hog Island Boa Price

    The only one of the few that you mentioned I have experience with are the Hog Islands. My uncle got his female for $150 and she is very nice. Not a lot for freckling and a pure Hog (We know the breeder really well so we made sure...lol) But I will say this, as a youngster she was a terror. She would strike at shadows that she thought she had seen...lol But after much handling she is a dream.

    Sounds like my Nicaraguan. Thanks for the input.

    A pure Hog Island with a clean pattern is going to be tough to find, and cost more than one with freckling. I bought my Pearl Island boas in 2008 for $1000 each. Sadly the market has fallen pretty far on them since them even though there are not many people breeding them. I guess supply and demand isn't always what it is all about...
