Please talk me into getting a Blood!

[RoyalGuardian]

If you're really not sure then I agree that I don't think you should get one. I have wanted a blood for at least a year now, but I have made myself wait because I just don't feel that I can handle the responsibility now with my four other snakes. I've promised myself I can have one when I graduate and get my own place, but until then, no.

Sometimes going and talking to people who have them, or holding one that belongs to someone else may help you make up your mind.

I completely agree!

Thanks everyone!! I should have told you about myself a little more. I have an open and available boaphile cage. I've been involved with herps for years and have raised hundreds of corns. I've bred Savus along with rosies and bulls. I'm currently working with boas exclusively. I really love them. The title, "Please talk me into getting a Blood!", is more ragging on myself than anything. I will be getting a blood. Just don't know when. I have really appreciated the responses and encouragement. Especially the ones that suggested where the nice ones could be found. I'm used to having my face nearly ripped off by Savus but I would still rather have a docile Blood. I don't want to breed it, just want a nice one for the collection. You guys are great! Thanks again!

Before you know it you'll be selling of your boas one by one for more bloods, lol.

If you can 100% care for a blood, have the time and the money, the patience and willingness to take on board the information to better serve you and your snake(s) then its something worthwhile and rewarding.

However if you have any doubts I would hold off, personally I think if you really want something its pretty obvious from the get go,and not something you should look for people to convince you to do.

If you decide for sure you want one best of luck, you certainly have good background of experience to let you gel well with a bloods habits and individual persona's they have.
