I love Boa's as I have around 15 of them. When they get larger, I don't feed every 7 days. I feed every 2 to 3 weeks. However, they usually don't go off feed in the winter so you will have to feed them year round.

It just depends on what you want. BP's have their advantages and Boa's have their advantages.

Boa's do get much larger. My 6 year old Suriname weighs 13 pounds and while she is actually awesome to get out and hold, her weight limits the amount of times I do hold her and her weight gets tiresome to handle for long periods of time. My boys are no where near this size at all. A BP will never get to the point where you are limited in this aspect.

If you want to try a boa, I say go for it. They are beautiful and different than BP's but similar in care. However, others pointed out husbandry stuff for your BP so if your husbandry isn't spot on with your BP, then you might have trouble with an RTB. (Not saying your husbandry isn't spot on at all).
