Gosh now I want a sunglow BCI!

[Trackstrong83]

Well thanks to all of you bad influences out there, I've fallen in love with the sunglow BCIs. I've promised myself that I will only have 1 boa, since it will only be a pet, because I am stocking up on ball pythons to breed in a few years. Problem is, I currently have a dumerils boa. But aesthetically speaking, I think the sunglows are much more attractive. Size isn't an issue which hasn't helped in my predicament. And I think a sunglow would make a much better display snake.
But my dumerils being my first boa, and having her for over a year now, I feel a sentiment towards her. Gosh I'm so torn!! Please tell me someone else has been in the same position!

Thats an easy fix! Get the dumerils a boy/girl friend. then get yourself a sunglow male and a motley het albino female. That way its not "just" a pet. its a business investment! problem fixed. haha

You are SO NOT HELPING THE SITUATION hahaha
If I could have them I would. But recently I've thought about selling my dumerils and getting a female sunglow. Just looking for a better, good sized display snake.

you will regret getting rid of your dum if you do! They have completely different personalities than red tails! I love both but I'd never give up my big dum girl!

You might have just convinced me to keep my dum! Mine is only about 4 feet now, when she gets older I will her her a nice PVC cage. Right now she burrows all the time and you never see her. Will she make a good display snake as she gets older?

my big girl never burrows but then again I dont give her enough aspen to completely hide. she was a rescue and when I first got her I didnt see her for at least a month! now she comes to the front of her enclosure everytime I come in the room. Shes my favorite boa ever! i've had lots of red tails and havent ever had one that seemed to beg for attention.
