Question Python or Boa?

If I have to decide between a Ball Python and a Kenyan Sand Boa as a beginner's snake, which would be a better choice?
Thanks!

While I tend to like boa's, I do not know about a sand boa, so a ball might be a better choice. As to a blond or redhead, that would be a personal call.

LOL I vote blonde


As for your snake choices. It's a matter of personal preference. I have gone to expos with a couple of snakes in mind and ended up coming home with something completely different. What I generally do now is make sure I'm educated on the various husbandry requirements of many types of snake, that way, when I find one that I like, I am prepared to care for it. My personal preference between the two is the Ball Python.
