they are the perfect size boid for easy maintenance, and they look cool.. but
They just don't give clues to what they want. If they are hungry, they just sit there. If they are fasting, they just sit there. IMO they are just not interactive, even for a snake.
Although the babies eat anything very well, the adults go on and off feed. While this should be OK and is fine if you have live rats available, it is aggravating when you thaw a rat and your BP doesn't want it, nor does the other BP. Then you have to get a boa just to not waste thawed rats. You could easily raise a boa just on rats your BPs refuse. (BTW, if a boa is hungry, it looks at you with raised head when you open the cage. BPs just lay there with the same old body language, or lack thereof.)
