Umm, yes, I would say red tails are AWESOME! I love mine, such a different experience. He likes to be out, isn't shy, is curious and explores. He will hook his tail in my hair or tank top strap and cruise around and chill for as long as I let him. Eats like a champ, doesn't hide, so you can always see him. They aren't, (at least mine) jumpy like some bps when someone moves fast. They just don't seem to stress as easy. Male bci, will stay smaller. My vote is a male bci boa!!

Seeing as how I will probably choose the Red Tail Or the Dumerils I would more than likely go with the one that is a bit more active in the tank. That said the one that is least likely to strike during handling is still a concern. Obviously things differ from snake to snake, but in general laid back but active and very tolerant of handling would be desired traits.
I'll look at care sheets to see which is the easiest for our situation.
Has anybody used a glass tank for any of the bigger snakes. 75 gal type? I'm not sure the design of our Critter Cage is decent for the bigger stronger snakes. The top clips seem fine for the BP but I still use a mini pad lock.
I'd think a Red T or Dums would easily break the screen and top.
Not even sure why I'm remotely excited. My wife said "it's not going to happen". My son and I have other ideas though : )
Id get a PVC cage for him. And itll happen, she just doesnt know it yet
