are balls boring to handle compared to boas?

[Kinra]

It really depends on the animal's temperament. As eel588 boas can be a very on the go type of snake compared a ball python, but then I have some ball pythons that are always on the go when I have them out.

I'm fully convinced my female hypo jungle boa is the best snake in the world and no one is going to be able to convince me otherwise. She's has the boa curiosity, but she's very very laid back about it. She will sit mostly on my shoulders with her head on top of mine for hours, but if I handle her and let her move through my fingers she will explore. My male hypo jungle boa is a little flighty and can be a bit much to handle when you first take him out which I think is more typical of a boa.

Some of my ball pythons are ridiculously boring to hold though. I'm fine with a them staying put, but I have some that never even unball when I hold them. That to me is boring and not something you will ever see a boa doing.

I dont have any boas but the ones i held do seem to be more active than balls. Right now i only have balls and i like handling them. Not too boring, not too active.

Yes, yes they are....

I don't find them boring. Just less active. My BP is my shoulder pillow and massager. My boas are my workout.

Depends on the Ball. I have a new Juvi Pastel Lesser that is many things...boring to handle ain't one of them.

My boas are my workout.

I totally agree with that. After handling my Boas and Morelia, handling my BP is my relaxation time...

i like to handle my ball python ..but my boa is more active

some times my boa just bites me out of the blue ! lol

[chasingtime]

i truly believe that snakes chill with chill people...

[boadaddy]

I'd say yes. Something else that's fun to handle would definitely be a sd retic lol they're awesome!

Depending on what you consider exciting I guess. Handling a ball compared to a viper would be pretty boring I imagine, but a ball to a boa...I can't say there would be a huge difference other than your life is tad more at risk depending on the species of boa. If you like that sort of thing then boas would be more exciting.
