That classifieds section has a misspelling in the title. They are "Hog Island" boas, not "Hogg Island" boas.

The island is named after pigs (aka, hogs).

Just wanted to point it out so it can be corrected.

Thanks!

" Cayos los Cochinos " - Hog Island - Hog isle

Boas By Klevitz

I Support USark.org

its just cayos cochinos, which translates really to pig cays, its perhaps been shortened in recent times by maritime maps or whatever. as a kid i remember my parents refer to them as cayos de cochinos which translates to cays of pigs, not to be confused with bay of pigs, which landed my family in the USA! LOL. the Hogg islands exists (plural) various places are called or have been called this over the centuries, but they are not the ones the boas we are referencing are from.

It has been questioned directly since day
one they split the classifieds.
Ronne and a few others list their Hog Isle
for sale with the double g spelling.

There is not a single translation reference
regardless of dialect that supports the double
G referencing "Hog Island" BCI.

Good possibility the reason "those" aren't selling.

Guess it business as usual Eh!?

Not quite. It should be changed shortly, but see I was testifying at hearings here in WI to prevent laws, working on NRAAC stuff and prepping for the largest educational reptile exhibit in the country.
