Hi Everyone,
I've recently joined the forum and I am a huge fan of Locality BCI - I currently keep seven different localities, some of which are pretty rare in collections in the UK (where I'm based) so I was just wondering what locality boas to you guys keep?
Thanks!

Check these out! This is a 2010 litter produced by a friend on another site. Guess who's working his way to the top of the waiting list... This guy!

Love your snakes names! I'm guessing you are more into your BCC than the BCI then?

A colombian is all I have at the moment, but I do have plans on a couple more in the next year or so. :)

Mainly different morphs. The sunglows are beginning to grow on me and I want a snow boa later. I really want a true BCC and thought I had what I wanted picked out until I saw a couple of others I wanted lol.

But first I must have a retic before I purchase another animal. I've wanted a retic for years and now I feel confident with getting one, it's next one my list so the others have to wait...and it's quite an extensive list lol

This does not include any rescues or adoptions I do. Almost half of my collection is in this group :) My most recent is a JCP (I always wanted one of these too) which I haven't added to my sig yet.

They all sound very nice, I am focusing on locality BCI myself but you can always appreciate a pretty snake :)

I don't keep any yet, but I do hope to get a few locality boas sometime. My sights are set on Longicauda first and foremost, possibly an argentine, but for BCI, I really don't like the Columbian boa morphs, just the normals and aneries lol. I have a softspot for sonorans and central amerians, as well as calker cays. I just don't have any extra space right now with all the pythons lying around :D

I'm hoping to get a pair of BCO's later this year :)

I wanted a smaller insular locality boa, so I did a bunch of research and settled on a Hog Island. She's about 7 months old and has been a joy to keep. She's very docile, curious to a fault (ask my wife about the "printer incident" :)), has a great feeding response, and I love her ability to change color. She's been a great addition to the family! :yes:

I love Hog Islands and have a female myself, they are pushing the upper limits for me on 'dwarf boa' size but I had to fit one or two into the collection!!!

I'm hoping she stays about 6' max, but no biggie if she ends up a bit larger. I've seen both her parents, and mom was a shade under 6' and dad was a shade over 5', so I'm holding out hope! :) But like I said, she's been a great addition, and even 7' wouldn't really bother me. I had a male Peruvian BCC many years ago that topped out at just under 7.5', so I've certainly been there before.

I'm secretly hoping mine gets to be a big girl :)
