Just a thought, and no offense to my snake sisters.

You are right. I am 5' Exactly. And it is hard for me to handle a 6' boa alone.
So if i was gong to do bigger snakes. I would get to something skinny. like a black head ;)
It is hard enough handling a 6' preggo boa at work. she weighs way ore than 50lbs.

I would love a burm or retic one day but i am limited by handling like the other women have said and space at the moment. Boas ten to not my cup of tea tho I find them beautiful, I do keep Candoia Carinata. I have 6 Bloods which are large, I have many balls, Carpets, diamond, hognose, GTP and Timors. Lizards are not my thing at all.. Tho nothing wrong with keeping them but they don't interest me. I also have 9 tarantulas.
