I'm curious as to what makes a boa a 'Crawl Cay'. I don't think anyone on this side of the pond uses that term, but I see it all the time in UK-based forums...

This website describes the different types of island boas, including the Crawl Cay: Rio Bravo Reptiles: Island Boas (http://www.riobravoreptiles.com/boas_island.htm)

They are a locality boa originally from the island 'Crawl Cay' they are a very small boa and are considered a dwarf locality. I think they are easier to source in the UK due to lots of early breeding success here - they seem to be scarcer and a great deal more expensive elsewhere.

Okay, thanks, and thanks to Alessia too. I knew it was a locale thing, but I was thinking that it was just another nonsense moniker that breeders try passing-off as something more special to get more bucks in their pockets. Clearly they're something different, but I don't know that I've ever seen one over here :)

I'm sure there are some fakes about but here in the UK they are pretty easy to trace back to the original importers/breeders :)
