    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Hog island, cross, or redtail?

I bought this boa from a local petstore marked as a hog island, and the tail just seems a bit to red to be a true hog. Any thoughts?

It's definitely mostly Hog Island but it doesn't look quite pure. The build is too thick and the color isn't quite right for a true Hog. As Richard said, most Hogs are not pure now, sadly enough. Whoever started that hypo hog crap back in the day (can't remember off the top of my head) did a huge disservice to the boa community.
