Posted - 29/03/2011 : 10:09:01 we have a variety of both species.......
although i much prefer my boas, most carpets will be handleable by one person whereas a boa might not be, that might be a deciding factor |

Posted - 29/03/2011 : 09:11:05 First thing I would say is have you done any research?
Do you know how big a common boa is when fully grown? Do you know what size housing they need? Heating type? Same with a Coastal Carpet Python?
If they are going to be kept in your room and your nan doesn't like snakes then I would not suggest you get them! Maybe stick with corns until you have your own place. Or if your after something different maybe a King snake? |
