EXCELLANT CHOICES for kiddos!!!! When we got our first Rosy Boa it was for my son's 6th birthday.... It is the best snake I have ever had for a child!!! Very docile, very outgoing but not wiry, not boring at all, plus beautiful and a good manageable size... So perfect I bought one for my daughter as well!!! But with supervised visitation from mom of course!!!!
