I agree w/ Dave.. I think the reason they have a reputation for being difficult is that many people try to care for them like they would one of the more main stream boids.. and as a result, they fail and end up w/ a bad experience. As a result - they blame it on the snake being difficult to keep instead of admitting they were wrong in their husbandry.
The fact is, as long as you set their cage up correctly, get the temps right and the humidity high - they are not bad to care for - in fact require less work then the other animals on your list.
Anyway.. Welcome to the forum Jacob!! You won't find another forum like this anywhere.. and you certainly won't find a cooler snake to work with..

>>BRB's are considered moderate to advanced but IMO are quite easy. The real concern is getting the right type of enclosure and having it set up correctly. With the right enclosure, not that hard to care for....feed, clean and fresh water!!
