Re: I DONT want that snake........
I didn't mean to stir a hornet's nest regarding the whole morph thing. And my issue with morphs has little to do with morality of any kind, just that I believe the naturally occurring colors/patterns are as beautiful as anything that could be "artificially" produced (with boas, anyway). I mean, how does one improve on a Brazilian Rainbow boa, for example? Or a stunning Guyana BCC? Again, JMHO. They're all beautiful in their own way, but I'll just stick with plain, old normals.

Re: I DONT want that snake........
No hornets nest... honest.
One of my proudest achievements is a snow I bred from scratch, she's not for sale at any price.
Her mother was a normal het for Anerythristic, and her father was an albino.

She was born PERFECT.

Re: I DONT want that snake........
I think for me.. it's baby corns + garters and all those tiny little creatures I feel like I'm going to mush if I touch them.. I have an older garter that I looove to pieces.. and I can pick him up and he's sturdy and full.. I do ONE day hope to own a retic.. as well as a HOT.. but if that'll actually happen is not clear yet..

Same for me. 9' is about my limit (She poops the same size as my largest Mastiff!), I have no desire for "hots" or pythons in general. Love all you BP humans, but for me, they are far too common, and despite the seemingly thousands of awesome paint jobs, too similar to one another.
Neither Marcy nor I are big on colubrids. She'll be mad for telling you this, but she is terrified, TERRIFIED of worms! Loves snakes and other gross stuff as I, but do NOT show her a worm! Anyway, the shape of the colubrids is just to similar to worms, really for either of us.
Wow! Am I glad there are boas in the world apparently!

Re: I DONT want that snake........
I don't want any snake that's faster than me. lol
This is my personal opinion so please don't take offense.
Hot's don't like anything that could kill me with just a bite.
Kings and Milk snakes. I like snake that i can tell were the head is in a glance. Makes it easier to avoid the point end.
Boa morphs and Ball Pythons they just don't do it for me. Regular Boa's are fine.
I do like Rainbow Boa and Sand Boa morphs.
Let's face it I am a Python and Boa guy just don't ever want anything that gets over 10 feet. Been there do that and it wasn't fun. I don't like cleaning up poop that size. Plus i want something i can handle by myself.

'Freak reminded me, I am not into the boa morphs either. Marcy and both love true redtails (and will own one one day) but I just missed the boat on the morphs.

Re: I DONT want that snake........
Well I'm limited to what I can keep to begin with, if it ain't a native then I can't keep it.
In saying that, I would not keep anything patternless which rules out liasis and some of the Antaresias.
I won't keep anything that requires more than a 4x2x2, rules out Blackhead pythons and Scrubies and Coastals.
I won't keep hots or rather the wife won't let me keep hots.

Re: I DONT want that snake........
I'm not a big fan of balls and colubrids, but I've got a ball and I own a corn (waiting for nicer weather before having her shipped here) that I want to use for educational purposes. I don't really care for bloods either. I want to eventually have a giant or two but definitely not now. I don't think I ever want the responsibility of having a hot, I'll just admire from a distance or from behind glass.

Re: I DONT want that snake........
I don't think I'd ever have a retic or a full sized burm, but a friend of mine rescued a burmese that is 9 years old and is only a little over 6 feet long. She's had him almost a year, and he has nearly doubled in girth (still only about 8-10 lbs) and I'm adopting him soon. Best guess we can come up with is that he'll maybe get about 6 inches longer. I would never have a hot, even hog noses make me nervous.

Ok, so even colubridz can be awesome! She's really amazing in appearance!
The mating video is also by FAR the most graphic I have ever seen! I think I saw the climax! (Can I "say" that in this family program? )

i would really like a black headed python,for its looks and capabilitys as a cannabilistic snake
scrubbys look amazing,the scalation on their head makes them look dragon like imo.they get too big for me own my own though
if i was living in oz,i think it would be locale specific diamonds and hypo bredl all the way
cheers shaun

I love diamonds particularly the B&W diamonds (their hard to come by though and will take up too much room in my limited space).
I may have been a bit too quick to dismiss the blackheads as well a couple of the Western Australia locality blackheads max out at 5 foot (allegedly?)
