My largest male is about 5ft. and the size of a large rat snake. I think as more morphs are available in this size range (and more people properly raise their boas) they will become the ultimate pet. People buy Ball Pythons because of the color morphs, well since Boas are by far the superior animal (opinion) I think it is only a matter of time before small boas win out.

You mentioned the monster Hog you saw. I bet that it had fat rings on or near the tail, a very small head compared to the neck thickness, and probably didn't look 100% pure.
