Re: smallest boa?
I'd wait to a show to get one if I were you. They are nice snakes, but they are a preference snake. They resemble large worms to me and don't get very big at all, about two feet is it. Rubber and Rosy Boas get about 3ft and there is many more distinct designs and locales to choose from too.
I'd hit a show or two and check em out, both kinds, and then figure out which to get.
Good luck!

Re: smallest boa?
We got Oreo, our Kenyan anery @ the local herp show in Eugene from a breeder called Snakes of Ra. VERY good escape artists. Took her a couple of months but she managed to squiggle out from under the lid 2x. Luckily we were able to find her, but I'm happy she'll be able to live in her 10g tank for her "forever" home.
April's pic of her two is what hooked me on getting an anery. My daughter calls Oreo our little "earf worm" :D We just love her :wuv:

Re: smallest boa?
actually...they are cute to me...and it's great that they get under two feet. I'd prefer a smaller boa, although the rosies are indeed attractive, I'd rather go for the smaller one (easier to sneak past your RA ;) ).

Re: smallest boa?
Haha, then do it. They are cool.
