I suppose I'll throw in my two cents.
I own both and like others have said, their personalities are so different! I only have one smaller female boa now (about 3') and she LOVES exploring, is curious about everything, is always trying to go on my head, and never refuses food...EVER. She does strike at me while she's deep in shed though, so I've learned to just leave her alone at that time. Otherwise she is awesome!
I have right around 40 ball pythons now (and 20 more in the incubator). They're much more relaxed, I suppose you could say. Most of mine will just kinda sit there. Others like to "explore". And then there's the whole eating issue...being that they don't sometimes. Other than that, the bps are awesome and I can't get enough of them.
I definitely want more of both boas and ball pythons. So which ever you decide to get, they're both a great choice!
