I've wanted to get a snake for a while now, but I can't decide what kind to get. I want to get either a Ball Python or a Rosy Boa, but I don't know which one would be better for me. I've never had a snake before. I've always loved reptiles, but my first real experience with them was a year ago when my sister bought me a Leopard Gecko for my birthday. I fell in love with him and I knew then that I wanted to start collecting more herps. I'm just wondering what input I might get from someone who has a Rosy or a Ball (or both). Which species would be easier to take care of for an amateur herper like myself? I've done a lot of research on both species, but I still can't decide. Any advice?
