No pet is a "bad pet". It is true that not all pets are for everybody, but if you make the choice to take on the care of an animal, you must accept responsibility for that animal and you must recognize that the animal isn't going to change to what you want it to be. That's why researching your choice of pet is so important BEFORE you bring it home. If you aren't happy with your bp, you have no one to blame but yourself. What are you going to do with your bp if you get a boa? Keep him? Why? He's not going to change what he is. Ignore him? That's not fair. You have the responsibility to find him the PROPER home - no matter how long that takes.

What happens if your boa turns out to be a picky eater too???? They generally have a better feed response, but not all. Check out the threads here - you'll find some very recent ones about boas not eating....

Sorry for the rant. I don't mean to sound harsh, but your BP has no voice - someone needs to speak for him......
