Hello

You have got many replys about this subject but here's my opinion. Choose B.schlegelii they are much more calm and stressfree. I found them easy to obtain and perhaps they aren't that fragile to get diseases (like mouth infection). My schlegelii can be handeled just with one hook because it's so calm.

A.squamiger can be quite nervous and perhaps more agressive than schlegeli. My squamiger doesn't even stay on the hook and it's sometime quite difficult to handel it when it comes to cleaning it's box.

This is just my experience and opinions about these snakes.. there can be ofcourse individuals that act differently.

ps. And if you want species which like to be on display choose schlegelii.
