    Finally made up my mind!!!

    So I was thinking of getting a Yellow anaconda for xmas, but, I have 2 issues; 1)I do not have something to put it in when it gets HUGE and 2)I cannot find a local or even a Florida breeder if I did have something big enough.....

    So that being said, I am settling on a Nicaraguan Boa, found a sweet looking one on BHB Reptiles, about to order it today, and have it shipped out Monday, IF it's not too cold that day. Here is a pic, it is directly from the source, so I am not stealing it and putting it up myself!!! (Direct Link: http://bhb-reptiles.myshopify.com/co...oa-constrictor)

    I heard these little guys are aggressive, so I changed my mind AGAIN lmao......

    I started looking into good boas for pets rather than concentrating on looks and the Dumerils looks awesome, heard nothing but good about temperament!!!!

    So I found some on kingsnake and hopefully we can go with them instead of the Nicaraguan boa!! I will be happy either way obviously, but yeah!

    Re: Finally made up my mind!!!

    I've only had my dumerils for a few months and already picked up 2 more sub adults they have all of the pros and none of the cons that I can see. Very heavy bodied as adults only getting 6 to 7 feet and puppy dog tame off the rip. They do feed with gusto however but that can be said about some individuals of any species. They have already become my favorite snakes to handle. Good luck on what ever you choose.

    Def going dumerils, I have been reading since shortly before that last reply, and that's what I'm looking for. Puppy dog temperament, nice thick adult size. So lets just hope the person getting this for me didn't order the 1st one already lol
