    Which????

    Going to Sac expo in Sept. What should I get? I like fat boids; balls, bloods, RTBs, etc. I am VERY tight on cash.

    If anyone has any ideas about pricing for the following at an expo, it would be much appreciated.

    Here's what I'm considering.

    ~True RTB (Suri, Peruvian, etc) (either gender, hatchling / juvie)

    ~Red blood (female, hatchling / juvie)

    ~Pastel BP (to pair with my spider) (female, breeder)

    ~Dumeril's boa (either gender, juvie / adult)

    ~Other boa

    ~Other python




    I am open to suggestions.

    Since you're VERY tight on cash, don't buy anything! I've seen waaay too many "selling my collection 'cuz I'm broke" ads. Take care of what you've got - maybe getting another little life to be responsible for is not a good option right now.

    I know what you mean; I am careful about how much I spend. I always have enough for possible medical needs, feeding, etc. What I meant is that I am tight on what I can spend; I set a good deal aside for feedings, vet needs, etc.

    I agree, hold on to that cash. When you have more cash, buy a super pastel to breed to your spider.

    Re: Which????

    Dumeril's boas are great snakes! Even though they can be picky eaters most of the time they make wonderful pets for an intermediate snake owner. I think they are the prettiest snakes alive because of their amazing colors and patterns. At first they can be a little nervous when coming into a new environment, but once they get settled in they are very calm and wonderful snakes to have. I think you should purchase a juvenile because they are inexpensive and it's really cool to watch them grow. Right now I own a Dumeril's boa that is about a year and a half now and she's great. I purchased her last year on November 22nd at the reptile expo in Phoenix. I got her for $90, but it was worth it.

    Thanks! I am really leaning towards a Dum. They are so incredibly beautiful! And I have a spare 4x2x2 AP cage, which would work out for a small adult.
