    Coastal Carpet Python vs. Hogg Island Boa

    I'm stuck, I love both snakes but I don't know which one to get next. I like different stuff about each.

    What do you all think?

    I would love to hear past experiences with each. That would probably be helpful.

    Re: Coastal Carpet Python vs. Hogg Island Boa

    I voted hogg island boa, since IMO their very pretty. Also because the ones i've seen had excellent temperment, not sure about the coastal carpet pythons temperment.

    I would vote both. And if you end up not liking one of the two as much, you can send it to me.

    Seriously, just do more research on them. Also, handling one of each species may help you make a decision as well.

    I've recently decided to get a coastal carpet python so that's what I voted.. more voting for myself than what would fit you specifically, both are great snakes.

    Re: Coastal Carpet Python vs. Hogg Island Boa

    You know I considered both when getting my (Jungle) carpet python. I went for the Morelia though. They have something about them that boas just don't have... something mysterious...

    I voted coastal, but Im also on a carpet high after getting another one. I just love the look of carpets. Babies seem to be a little nippy at times, but my adult male is the sweetest boy.
