I have been looking into boas as well, and I just started a thread on it.

Several people have posted some breeders in there. But why wouldn't you want to start with a younger boa and raise it? I dont have one, but it just seems like it would be an easier transition to go from a ball to a young boa, instead of a full grown one. Then you could see it grow up, know it's temperment, and after a bit you would still end up with a full grown boa. Just IMO. ^_^
