Within the last year I have taken every opportunity to handle as many different snakes as I could. I really enjoy boas but at the end of the day balls are still my favorite. I love how chill they are and honestly I love how they easily change people's opinion of snakes and reptiles. I have ha almost 10 people (friends and family) that didn't like (or were very scared of) reptiles. Most really had a fear of snakes and 6 now want to have, or already have a ball python or another snake/lizard as a pet. If I ever have a larger place to live I would like one BCI boa. Peruvian long tailed would be great. One nice big cage in the living room. Unfortunately I said that with my ball python and now I want 6-10 to have as pets. oh how quickly the addiction takes hold.
