The island forms seem to be the smallest of the Boa constrictors, I have heard they get about 4-6 feet, There is also the Sonoran Desert Mexican Boa, they stay fairly small, they are from northern mexico. It seems the closer you get to ther Amazon River the bigger the Boa Constrictors get? Good Luck...

Mexican Boas, Rio Bravo reptiles has the info.

Cay Caulkers are also tiny, I have a couple young hogs and a Cay Caulker about the same age, the Cay Caulker probably weighs half as much as one of the Hogs.

a few months ago says "Tarahumaras may very well be the smallest, producing babies at only 38 inches". I was trying to remember that at work but couldn't so I had to wait until I got home and here it is.
