What is better - buy from expo or buy from breeder who ships to you?

Yeah, I'm having a hard time with that. He says, "You're an adult." Then when I ask what his opinion is REALLY, he gives me 4 reasons NOT to get another snake. 1) $$$, 2) Time and attention to care for another pet, 3) we are still somewhat struggling with husbandry on our BP (humidity - though that would not be an issue with a Rosy Boa), and 4) we don't even have time to clean the fish tank.

My feeling is that a 2nd snake (and even a 3rd probably) is inevitable. It's just WHEN. So I could go the route of, "If I'm going to do it anyway, why wait?" Or I could go the route of, "Do more research, save up money, and learn delayed gratification."

VERY HARD decision.

Deep inside, I hope he loses it at the expo and HE ends up being the one to get a snake of his choice (he loves the emerald tree boa and the green tree python).

You need to learn to work the trade with your husband. I just picked up another blackheaded python which cost me a new computer armoir with the wife.

The black pastel I brought home this week - a new Dyson vac.

One way or another, I figure she's gonna start to equate snakes with good things.
