Boa Survey!!

texasboa71 Oct 02, 2003 01:47 PM

I would like to know what kind of boa is everybodies favorite. And if you would please give me a quick little reason for it. I personally have only delt with Columbians so I have to say Columbians. They are very docile and the one that i had grew to be almost 9 feet. I recently purchased a Suriname from Rob Tudehope which i should recieve in a few days. However, I'm kinda fond to the Peruvian redtails. Going by looks alone, I think the Peruvians win hands down. If i had another $500 to spend, i would buy me a Peruvian to go with my new Suriname.

I have no boas currently, but I hope to in the near future.

I am partial to the size and coloration of the Cay Caulker boas and the Type II Anery Nicaraguan boas.

Right now I would have to say the Suriname but not just any Suriname! There are a few bloodlines out there that blow away any morph or any other locale in my opinion. But then I also like N. brazilians and Peruvians.

to ME,... NOTHING beats a nice true redtail,... all localities. suris, guyanas, and brazilians are my favs, but ANY BCC of quality is hands down the best IMHO.

Guyanan! I'm not sure why I prefer them. Maybe it's the purple.
