Best beginners boa
 
Hello looking for advice on best beginner boa I have 4 bp best docile boa that likes to be handle

Try a Dumerils boa. They don't get too long, though they can get thick, and have a reputation for being very chill and tolerant of handling.

Hog islands are good too! You just have to find a pure one, usually females stay in 5.5 foot range.

Tarahumara boas are hard to find, but stay super small. Like smaller than many ball pythons.

Michael Beach is a good guy to work with... You won't be sorry

Indeed he is, definitely why I am recommending him and his snakes. He has been a real pleasure to work with and a damn nice guy. It's nice to know an expert is there if need arises.

Moved to the Boas Discussion Forum.
Please be more careful about where you place your threads, Mr Colon...avoid posting discussion topics in the classifieds.

I don't have experience with dumerils, but I have a few hog islands that I absolutely love. My "big girl" is 4 years and around 5.5 feet. Some of dwarf BCIs due start off defensive as babies, but quickly grow out of it. My male has been a sweetheart from the jump, my girl took a few months when I got her years ago.

I have 1.2 2013 Tarahumaras. They are still defensive and hiss, but at least they've stopped nipping. They also are more likely to want to run and be active when being handled. That's why I recommended a Dum as a first choice, they're a lot less defensive than the smaller/CA locality boas, and while they eventually get bigger they tend to stay put if you throw them across your shoulders or want to carry them around.
