    Re: Looking for a 7-10 foot snake

    I would go for some sort of Carpet. I happen to like Coastals the most but if you want the brighter colors the Jungle would be better.

    If you don't mind straying from pythons, go with a Red Tail Boa. Maybe a male Peruvian or a female Colombian.

    I would like to recommend a Super Dwarf Retic to you but I don't know about the agressiveness. I've heard that some of them are pretty vicious but since I don't have experience with them, I couldn't tell you.

    Also, you might be interested in a Blood python. They're gorgeous, big bodied, and have an okay range of color selection.

    Whichever you chose, go for it.

    Yes sir, I'm glad you posted a link to that site as I completely missed the progression of this thread. If anyone is the LEAST bit interested in Boelens, they should have the Boelen's Group bookmarked!
