poll- opinion on strengh

In this poll, I would like if everyone vote from their experience/opinion. It is just for curiosity. YOUR NAME WILL NOT APPEAR NEXT TO YOUR CHOICE. Thanks to all who have voted!

I don't see a poll?

sorry, I was creating it while the post came up. its there now

See it now - I'm not qualified to answer, as I only own a ball! I can't compare it to others. Sorry!

Have you ever held another snake and maybe got an idea of its strength in comparison to your ball?

In my experience I will say BCC/BCI. While some snakes may have more muscle mass (blood python) the red tails really seem to use it more. lol they are more apt to climb and have tremendous strength that they use while climbing over you.

To mention a snake not on the list, dumerils boas are SUPER strong. My 3.5' male made my fingers turn purple and left scale marks on me while he held on to my hand and looked around the room.

Not since I've really gotten into herps. And since then, balls have been the only thing I've asked to hold, nothing else has captivated me as much as a ball! :D

No BCI/BCC are south american boas. Dumerils boas are one of the relatively few old world boas. They come from Madagascar. The scientific name is Acrantophis Dumerili. They have a close relative the Madagascar ground boa (acrantophis madagascariensis)
