For all of you who are specializing in Hog Island Boas, please post some pics to show the difference between high pink, high blue and orange. Also, I've seen a post from last year where some guy was selling his 'vanilla' phase hogs but he never posted pics. Is there such a thing or is he just referring to very light hogs? Are there true hogs with traits like monster tail or fine line? I know I've seen someone post pics of their pure hogs with reverse striping/jungle patterns. If you can, please post the pics from when your animals were babies/yearlings compared to what they look like as adults.

I'm looking to get a colony started and I know I like the high pinks from Dennis Black's line and I'm waiting to see the blues from Chris McQuaid's line.

Thanks!

From what I have been told there where only a few imported Hoggs back when they where originally imported that only went to a select few people. A while after those where imported and bought, some by Lorio and Gus @ RioBravo, more where imported that looked simalar but they where not from the island Cayos Cochinos but off the coast of the main land. Thus a few people still have original pure strains including Gus but many people have strains of Hogs that where mixed with the other imported animals that may have been nothing more than light BCI, or some form of BCI Hypo boas. I think I got that right but I opoligize if I didnt.

I have a beautiful Pink phase Hogg.. She still a baby but her colors only get lighter as shes grown. This is from when we first recieved her in Feb. She has a tendence to change colors to a dark dark grey right before she goes into shed which is really cool to witness.. but here she is in Pink.

This is what my Hogg looked like when she was a few months old.

This is what she looks like now as a yearling. Her pinks have come out more, and her pattern has lightened to a soft orange.

Here is another Hogg. He is a lighter Hogg without much Pink but a nice soft color. The first pic is at a couple months and the second is at about a year.
