So, I have been wanting to get another snake and this is my second favorite snake. What do you guys think of the color?

Nice snake, I think I'm going to be getting a hypo rainbow boa sometime next year. There is a breeder in my area and I love her hypo male.

Beautiful snake. I have a male burm that is my favorite. I can't wait for him to grow up. He has the temperament of a ball, but is more active and inquisitive when out. I love his personality. I still love my 2 balls just as much, but mitch is more personable.
Can't stop with just one!

I have thought about venturing into breeding brazilians, but I sold my pair before the female reached breeding size. I kick myself for that one now.
I LOVE gtp's! I have a male now, but he isn't breedable because he has a skin fold. I would love to have a clutch of gtp eggs!

Re: Its not a Ball Python but...
What about bloods? Those are my second choice. Rainbows are very attractive though.

I don't know why, and I may get flamed for this but I think rainbow boas are butt-ugly. I just really don't dig the red-and black combo, plus the iridescence. Sorry But it does have a really cute nice face and nice slender body.
To each their own? 
I absolutely love RTBs. I can't get enough of them. I love how clean their patterns look (even as adults) and all of the morphs are stunning. The first time I saw a sunglow at a reptile show, I fell in love.
Reach for the stars, and if you don't grab them at least you'll fall on top of the world.

BRB are ok. I don't see myself ever getting one, but I can appreciate them.
But...
Where is the other/none of the above option? 
I am a carpet python and amazon tree boa fan as well. I love naughty/feisty snakes.

I've never seen a woma in person, but I am really liking the photos of them. I voted red tail boa, though, cause once I'm a snake care expert and can talk my husband into it (hmmm... maybe never ) I will have one. They are so awesome...

I chose red tail boas. They're gorgeous, have fun personalities, and get to a great size (big enough to have some heft, but not so huge that it's a chore handling them).
The one carpet python I met was a downright sweetheart. I was at a show, and I got to hold a carpet that was a pretty good size (big enough to cut off a little circulation when he wrapped his tail around my wrist). Even though he was in full hunting mode (we were two feet away from a rat seller), he didn't even attempt to strike.
Then again, snakes seem to like me. I remember as a little girl reaching my hand into a tank full of baby burms and pulling them out to wear as bracelets, armlets, put around my neck, etc. Only now as an adult do I realize that they should have bit the crud out of me. But nope, I was a 6 year old girl walking around my grandpa's exotic reptile and fish store wearing baby pythons as makeshift 'jewelry'. And yes, I shamed a lot of people into overcoming their fear and holding a baby snake.
