Hog Isle,Nic,Corn Isle,Honduran,Costa Rican etc are all Central American Boas.
For the most part 9:10 never loose their neonate attitudes and some are just plain mean as adults.We have cages full of them to support our experience(s).The Hog Isles seem to mellow out much evener then the other strains.granted there are exceptions,and you'll find a few lucky souls that end up with some pretty mellow kids.Looking across the big picture its a small ratio indeed.

Not to steer from any of them because they tend to be abit wicked.... one that is handled regularly can attain pet status pretty easily.As with any other wild animal they should never be trusted because they will tag you without provocation.

My point is the true picture most people assume about Central American BCI couldn't be further from the truth and after people find out their true nature their often neglected because of their aggressiveness and the ones that survive are unloaded to just anyone and or die.

I feel much more could be said on the topic but an overview will help many understand whats generally not discussed.
Personally I like my animals with abit of spunk about them,thats why we work with the Central forms here.
