Re: I DONT want that snake........
I can't bring myself to keep ball pythons or the giants. I like active, moderately sized snakes. Giants poop like a horse!

i say it in jest pal
remember the sock puppets that were made to play with your kids ?
you take an old sock,stick on 2 googly eyes,put your hand in it and make funny voices to entertain young children,as you open and close the sock puppets mouth
they do remind me of ball pythons though
cheers shaun

Re: I DONT want that snake........
I'm the same as most here, and will pass on giants and hots. I had a roomie in college that had a 12'+ Burm. Very sweet snake, but my roommate got complacent one day and made a rookie feeding move which cost him a trip to the hospital and 18 stitches. TOTALLY his fault, but that was some pretty serious damage from a pretty big snake. All it would take is one little slip...
And while I dearly love boas, I'm also not terribly fond of the multitude of morphs currently being bred. NO disrespect to the fine folks doing the breeding, but I prefer my boas as you would likely find them in the wild. JMHO...

Re: I DONT want that snake........
I love both normals and morphs, I have one normal corn and then 5 morphs. I plan the same when I start on my BP collection, one normal and then some morphs!!

Re: I DONT want that snake........
Myself, I'm fine with morphs, as long as they have not been inbred to the point of birth defects to obtain them.

Exactly my feelings as well... I like normals, I like morphs as well. However, morphs like bumblebees (I think that's the right one) should be stopped.. Pretty colours are no where near as important as a healthy happy snake

EXACTLY!! right now I am looking for a sunkissed corn who is proven to be from non-stargazer lines. Not an easy thing since I have not found a breeder in Canada that is testing thier lines, so I may have to look state-side to find what I want.
