Additional note: I am no expert on Tarahumara, as I am a new owner, but I'll agree with bcr229 that these little Boas, while very vocal and hissy as babies, seem to be really gentle. Both of mine are just 8 months old. They hiss up a storm when I am getting them out of their enclosures, but as soon as they are out they seem quite content to sit quietly in my hands or slowly explore. I think they will be real sweethearts once they get past their scared baby stage. And honestly, the hissing is funny and not scary since they are such little guys.
