I love boas but ATBs (amazon tree boas) are my favorite.
They look venomous but are not and come in such a wide variety of colors and there's no rhyme or reason when breeding to determine what colors you may get.
They are feisty little demon shoe strings and I love them.
I love your description of them! And I never thought of it before, but you're right, they do look a bit wicked-venomous too. Amazing snakes!
Rudeness is the weak man's imitation of strength. Eric Hoffer(1902 - 1983)
