    Was it a sign???

    As many of you know, my limitations have been updated to include slightly bigger snakes than my girlfriends previous 5 foot rule.
    So I've been thinking boa or bredlis/carpet pythons. Well, I think this is a sign that I should go python, be it bredlis or carpet.
    I guess I'm weird like that and see things like this situation and say "it wasn't meant to be". So I'm reading further into it and thinking maybe I should stay python exclusive (with my colubrid exceptions). I'm thinking more than ever I want a Bredli or a carpet, so maybe that's my next two. After that, I'll be just about maxed out, but will maybe have room to add a second of whichever my favorite species ends up being...

    Just my thoughts at this point. Feel free to chime in with your thoughts if you'd like.

    Thanks for reading...
    I have similar feelings and thought processes as well. I do believe that particular Boa may not have been for you. There may be another one out there that is better for you, or as you say a Carpet/Bredli may be the way to go. I’m a huge fan of both, and know that you won’t be disappointed in either.

    The one thing I found that you can count on about Balls is that they are consistent about their inconsistentcy.
