    BRB, I have both actually and the Brazilian is the most docile and sweet snakes ever not to mention very pretty. I may even be able to say our BRB is more of a sweetheart than my ball.

    Re: Would you rather own a Brazilian Rainbow boa or a Red-tail boa?

    I personally have a RTB, but I can't say I'd rather own one then the other...

    I'm a huge BRB fan, but I don't have one...I've heard great things about their personality, not to mention their gorgeous looks! Totally picking one up next chance I get...Simple answer for you...BOTH!!

    Re: Would you rather own a Brazilian Rainbow boa or a Red-tail boa?

    BRB no question. I love RTBs and I've worked with both a baby and an 8 foot adult, but with me being as small as I am, it would be difficult for me to maintain and handle a big snake like that by myself. Plus, more space would be required for a larger enclosure, etc.

    I know that rainbow boas can get to be a decent size too, but I just really think that they are a lot more interesting looking and so beautiful. As soon as I have the space, money and resources, I'm definitely thinking about getting one!!

    Re: Would you rather own a Brazilian Rainbow boa or a Red-tail boa?

    I personally own both! 1 RTB and 3 BRBs. All of these animals are beautiful. It just boils down to personal preference. RTBs are awesome. But there is just something about the rich red and orange coloration of a BRB, mixxed with the rainbow irridesence. There is few members of the animal kingdom that can compare to the natural beauty of a Brazilian Rainbow Boa.
    also, the humidity is Very important. But don't let it scare you away from this Unique gem of a reptile! I use a repti fogger (decently affordable) and have grown these babies up since they were pencil sized! They all have wonderful appetites! They are very docile. I would highly recommend them.

    i personally love the RTBs and would definitly go with them. I love their size, temperment, and morph varities...
    BRBs are very beautiful though and I really want one one day. Both are very wonderful snakes

    We have several of each but I'm leaning toward the BRB. You just can't beat the way the BRB looks in natural sunlight.

    Ive had 2 RTBs and enjoyed them both but as some have stated, BRBs look awesome...just that shimmer from the light makes them look great. Maybe that will be my next snake once i get settled at my new job.
