Why do you like ATB's?

[stkkts]

Im curious why people like them. Is it there coloration? personality? cost? temperment? ease of keeping? What drew you in?

They are so cheap. Like 50 bucks. But the coloration on most doesnt seem all that spectucular, and from what I can tell, they can be on the aggressive side.

So I am just interested to understand the reasons that people love them so much.

a) they're a boa
b)they're arboreal
c) varriable
d) easy to care for compared to some arborials

Perhaps the real question is why DON'T people like them, lol? I love them because they are just plain cool and you never know what you'll get when you have an ATB. They're just plain fun to deal with.

Why ?
Hmm
because they are pretty, comes in MANY color variations, "easy" to keep, arboreal, not TOO big and the best part of them,
Their personality.. Its just a great adrenaline rush everytime you take them out (well for the BIG ones... heheheh ), and they are so beautiful to me :)

I don't know where you've been looking or getting your info from but they can get up into the 500 dollar range. They also got some of the widest color variations than any other snake I can think of. So stkkts if your doubting atb's you should give them another look and you can see why so many poeple like them.
