If you could only keep ONE snake, then what kind of snake would you keep. This is only somewhat species specific, but if you want to post more specifically which one, go for it. Im just curious to kinda see what people would end up with if they could only keep one.

One of these : Red Blood Python, Woma, White Lipped Python, Boa Constrictor Consrictor, Emerald Tree Boa, Dumeril's Boa... Choosing between them is impossible, they are so different!

Hmmm.. I'd never part with my Spotted Pythons. :)
Piebald ball python! Hands down!!!!

Wow a lot of ETB fans in the house. Id probably do an Albino ball python, if I was to be limited to only one. Is there really such thing as a blue eyed ball? Ive never seen one. Id love to see a pic.
Bloods. But I can't choose between the three species.

Nice question... It's a toughy for sure.
I'd settle for a good sized burm. My first thought would be GTP, but they need to much care and from what I understand, they don't like handling.

Hey I'd have to go with a burm hard too say which morph, probably granite. I have seen pics of a Ball with blue eyes and it’s completely white. I don’t believe the genetics on it have been proven, but I may be mistaken.

OMG the blue eyed lucies ROCK!!!!!!!!! Too bad they probably cost more than a cadillac or Id have to order myself one up right now! Thanks for posting pics!
Kingsnakes. If I had to for some reason get rid of all my snakes but one right now, I would keep my male California Kingsnake over the rest.

Well, since this is only a hypothetical question I'll bite.
I don't even own one yet but I would want to have Candoia if I could only have one species.

more like they cost more than alot of peoples houses, porsches, or some ferraris.
as farasmy choice fo one snake it would have to be a killer bumble bee pied bp.....not sure if they have been produced but n.e.r.d. has the killer bumble bee and cross that into the pieds and you would have a kick a$$ snake.
I want that pink boa I saw here a week ago!

Eastern red chinned Indigo. If I only had one, I'd have all the time in the world to keep the cage spotless and plenty of money for lots of rats!
Any Agkistrodon..(copperheads, cottonmouths.ect)

either THIS pair
http://www.prehistoricpets.com/images/animals/IVORYONE.jpg
or THIS snake
http://www.prehistoricpets.com/images/animals/hetballmale2.jpg
the first pair has a price tag of $45,500 US and the second is a steal at $75000 US. if i'm gonna dream, im dreaming BIG!
chas*e, how many you want, we try to get rid of all of them around here, WAY too common and not the kind you want around with the kids playing outside.

It's a tough call to be sure; I'd be torn between my Psuedelaphe flavirufa and my Macklot's Pythons.

**edit - I don't have a Snow Boa......................yet **
One single Female Snow Boa
that way if Atremis changes his/her mind and I can get a pair, I already have the female :)
I love Boas, and IMO Snows are the best. I am currently more involved with Balls but thats more of a space issue (although I really like BP's alot too), but if I had no other choice but to keep one snake it would be a Snow Boa.

Not that I actually own any type of reptile at the moment, but if I could get anything I wanted, it would probably be a super cinnamon pastel ball python. I like what I've read about balls in general, and I love the dark eyes on the super cinnamon.
