    Ghost Motley or Sunglow Boa?

    I'm thinking about picking up a boa soon but can't decide between a Ghost Motley or a Sunglow. Both are stunning in their own right. Here is the Ghost Motley I'm eyeing and a Sunglow I found.

    Both are beautiful critters but I'm partial to those Sunglows.

    Both are fantastic looking animals, but those Sunglows are always head turners.

    It depends on what you're looking for. I'm partial to ghosts - and have actually been eyeing that same ghost motley for some time since John is nearby lol. Was hoping to see that one in person at a show.

    Anyway... ghosts aren't going to be as bright when they get older, while the sunglows are always going to have some nice color. They are head-turners for sure. If you're wanting something that's eye catching, get the sunglow. If you want something different, get the ghost

    They are the actual snakes. The Motley is from a breeder I know and have worked with in the past. He's a great guy. I don't know who the other one is and need to look into him.

    I love how bright the sunglow is but I'm a sucker for the black and white as well. It's going to be a minute before I pull the trigger and buy one as all my NYE earnings are going towards credit cards to get them finally wiped out. The downside to the Motley is that John seems to move his boas quickly.

    Haha, he has a few on MM that look great but I love the markings on the tail of the one linked. I want to try and work out a deal with him if he's at the All Ohio show next month but it's dependent on how good my weekend and especially NYE earnings are. Credit card debts come 1st.

    That's tough. But if I had to choose i'd get the ghost motley. Or flip a coin I guess lol. Or just get both.
