    I would say wait a lil bit and just do your homework. I did what you want to do i got my first BP and in 2weeks i had a RTB. Just do what you feel is the right thing to do just make sure your money is right for the care of your animals and you should be fine good luck and go with the borneo or the red.

    I have handled alot of Dumerils boas and all have them have been really friendly snakes, and I have read they do quite well in captivity. I believe they can hit 8 foot though, so keep that in mind... Also like everyone else is saying make sure you spend some time with the one snake you have for a little while atleast, make sure its something you are going to stay interested in and make sure you dont mind the 20+ year commitment of a snake. I know how it is to want to go get another snake immediately after you buy one, for me atleast whenever i get a new reptile, it just makes my want to go out and buy another one as soon as possible, dont let yourself get overwhelmed!

    i have almost all those but i dont keep jungles i keep coastals carpet pythons are awsome but they kinda have adhd buut they can be a very forgiving snake because austraila is very diverse when it comes to temps but that dosent mean you should neglect it needs tho. amazon tree boas can be tamed mine is but they do stress out when handeled alot even when tamed down. i dont keep red bloods or borenos but i do keep a sumtura short tail awsome snake but mine is very shy and can be vocale which is kinda weird lol you should just go to a reptile show and hold all the snakes you see that you like and pick what you like best cause your the one that lives with it for 20 plus years not us but good luck.

    I'd choose red blood python or carpet python (don't limit yourself to jungles, they are ALL amazing!).. but I'm a little biased since I keep both. The other options don't interest me much.
