Coastal Carpet Python vs. Hogg Island Boa

I'm stuck, I love both snakes but I don't know which one to get next. I like different stuff about each.

What do you all think?

I would love to hear past experiences with each. That would probably be helpful.

I voted Coastal since I have one and i'm more of a python guy.

I voted hogg island boa, since IMO their very pretty. Also because the ones i've seen had excellent temperment, not sure about the coastal carpet pythons temperment.

Hog Island Boas - Beautiful, great temperament, manageable size.

Why not both? :D

can't afford both at this time.

I would vote both. And if you end up not liking one of the two as much, you can send it to me. :D

Seriously, just do more research on them. Also, handling one of each species may help you make a decision as well.

I've recently decided to get a coastal carpet python so that's what I voted.. more voting for myself than what would fit you specifically, both are great snakes.

You know I considered both when getting my (Jungle) carpet python. I went for the Morelia though. They have something about them that boas just don't have... something mysterious...

I voted coastal, but Im also on a carpet high after getting another one. I just love the look of carpets. Babies seem to be a little nippy at times, but my adult male is the sweetest boy.
