Hey guys,
I've been a long time fan of boas, and have always wanted one. I've been keeping herps for around 3 years now(15 currently) and have worked with RES,Ball pythons, Cornsnakes and a hoggy. I'm responsible and feel I could responsible care and cage a boa that could get 10' plus. Were soon having a new room built on for me in which i could build a cage 7' by 5' by 6' for a boa. I've done tons of research but my mom is still petrified of big snakes( she's currently scared of my year old ball python and says shes huge)
Does anyone have any ideas of how i could convince her? I understand that columbines tend to get slightly larger than true red taileds( that or the book was totally off) I also read in one reptiles issue that there are dwarf forms of the boa but they tend to be much more nippy and nervous( people who actually keep these guys is this true?) If not i'll have to go with a dummerils boa which is still just as attractive but you just can't beat a boa,their so gorgeous.
anyways so if anyone had any tips would be greatly appriciated
Thx
Kayla
