Re: What to get?

Why did you trade in your boa? The reason you traded it in could help people give you suggestions to avoid you not wanting your next snake after a while.

The snake had URI like literally two days after getting him and my temps/humidity were fine. For about two months I tried to get him better which he did but then somehow I got the mites which made his RI bad again. Nothing about the actual snake I disliked. I am thinking about a Pastel BP but I'm not sure if I'll regret it.

You're full of it.

You need to STOP buying reptiles right now.

How are mites somehow associated with an URI? It got it "two days" and it was "two months" later it was better.

Either, it had it prior to you owning it and it would have been full blown and you didn't know what you were doing to notice.
It was the early affects of RI in the first two days and pretty much anything at that point will cure it.
The original seller of the animal is correct and you clearly don't know what you're doing.

Mites stress out a snake and the RI wasn't completely gone, making RI worse which I think from soaking in the cold water. Two days after getting the snake I noticed popping and all of my temps and humidity were fine. About a month and a half to two months later he had almost no popping but only a little mucus in his mouth. He never had any bubbles or anything serious it was always a minor case of RI and it was almost gone like I said until he got mites, stressed out and soaked in cold water.

@dinosaurdammit, he only ever had a little mucus in his mouth and popping. He never had any drooling or bubbling out of his mouth.
