>>(Edited for KS.) High orange 04 Hog Island male bred to an 03 Cay Caulker female. Litter born 6-23-08 103-104 days POS. 8 live 2 slugs. Approx 16”-17” in length. 35-40g before feeding.

.
These boas face an uncertain future. Crossbreedings like this yield (at least some) results different from what the breeder intends. Pure Hog Island boas and Caulker Cay boas bring $200.00-300.00 and are sold as fast as they can be made. These mutt animals appeal to a small sub-set of buyers and what they will look like as adults.. including size, is entirely unknown.
.
If you keep all these babies and raise them to a full-life or find responsible buyers who will not bring crossbreed boas into the market as the 'real deal' then good for you!
.
If these turn out to be more orphans with no real heritage or future then it adds to the reasons why known locality boas should not be crossbred.
.
Thanks for considering my opinions.
