Let me help you out with one little thing Brandon. I know what those Ball Python people have told you over there. I am a Ball Python guy myself. I own one. LOL One. Though I bred them successfully years before almost all the other Ball Python guys did back in 1988 or 1989. But I digress, and I'm trying to help you out here. Seriously.



You mentioned you are thinking about "coming over to the dark side". Now I know that a few Ball guys over there are very intolerant of anyone who has stuff outside of Ball Pythons. Boa guys aren't nearly so judgmental. Sure we all understand the fact that Ball Pythons are merely basically brain stems in comparison to the giant intellect that you will find in your average Boa, in comparison mind you. But we can appreciate the beauty found in Balls and the Beauty found in Boas, along with the personality, inquisitiveness and inherent overall greater satisfaction that comes from keeping Boas. Now we all know these things to be true and yet, you have been led astray by the Ball guys over there who have done everything they could to keep you in that narrow, and dark underworld that is the Ball Python world. Here is the real truth Brandon. And remember this as it has been said more than once before, "The truth will make you free!"



When you delve outside of the Ball Python world and dip the tip of your big toe into the Boa world, you are making that first step OUT from the dark side and into the light! Make no mistake. There are some crazy unbelievable Ball Pythons out there! But the "dark side" as you called it, is where you have been Brandon. Come into the light Brandon! You will be glad that you did! Welcome...









By the way, get what you like Brandon. Surinams are great animals. Females tend to be larger than males. But don't limit yourself to only Surinams. There are many other "Wild Type" different locality Boas out there as well. Have fun on your trek into the Boa world! The water is warm!!!
