I was kindof like you, I wanted a bigger snake but not keen on the size the boa got. I researched the different types of dwarf Boa's and decided on the Hogg Island Boa. I purchased a hypo Hogg earlier this year and it was the best decision I've made so far. My girl has such a sweet personality and is chill when I handle her. I decided a couple months later to purchase get sister, so now I have 2 wonderful Hogg Island Boa's and couldn't be happier!!!!
Don't get me wrong though, I love my 2 BP's but they don't like being messed with to much as they stress out. My other snake, which is a Hognose is another one I enjoy as he is an absolute clown and makes me laugh all the time.
I wouldn't look pass the Hogg Island Boa. They for the most part are low key for a boa, don't get big and have a great personality. Although, like everything else, there can always be a few grumpy ones out there as well.
Do your research, ask the breeder lots of questions. Ask how big the parents are and what their personality is like? Ask to see pictures or arrange to take a visit and see the parents in person. Good luck and let us know what you decide.
