Why sold in pairs?

[Nick_MD]

...I have to confess that I probably would be way, way too picky about potential owners to ever actually sell a snake. And of course, it didn't take much time at all for me to fall in love with them, and now the idea of getting rid of any of them is just unimaginable.

... I confess I am tempted to breed the Tarahumara once because they are really amazing little Boas - but I wouldn't do it unless I was 100% confident about the people buying them. So chances are very good this will never happen.

Pretty much my situation. I don't want to get into shipping or dealing to someone I don't know, so it would need to be someone local that I trust (or a group of folks if I got into breeding). Rehoming a pet is not something I take lightly, even after less than a week and with minimal handling. I was content to wait another year to find this locality boa, but when the breeder who has a great reputation offered up these two I jumped on it. I can live with it if the only negative is listening to my family asking me why I got two of the same thing.
