Oh geez, Hoggies are one of my favourites! Nuno, they are both lovely, the one with the striped tail is particularly interesting.

Have fun with them.

They both look great! Congrats on the new additions -- I don't think I've ever seen one with a striped tail like that! Very cool...

Oh boy, don't let Jeff F. see them. The strip is very cool. How do you feel about the speckling?
Cheers,
Trevor

Awesome Hoggs you got there. I recently purchased a baby male "reduced pattern" Hogg. The one I picked out has hardly any speckling. Does anyone know what the difference is? The babies came from a "normal female" and a "patternless male".

All boas are speckeld to varying degrees. I find that on a hog it looks like barbequed salmon.lol Some people like very little some like them as is. I'm too picky for my own good so when I'm picking a boa I look for symetry in the sadles and low speckling.
Cheers,
Trevor

ah..i see...i wasnt sure if maybe it meant purer bloodlines or something. Either way...they are beautiful looking snakes. Do you know if the speckles come out later on as they get older? The baby I picked out has very little and has nice pinks n oranges...darn im getting impatient..i cant wait for it to arrive!!
