all of mine are columbians (bci) and ive never regretted getting any of them (all 9 of them) we have bci's ball pythons, and a blood python, the bci's have, and always will be my fave

mine are fat little piggies that pretty much eat all their food (only had 2 of them refuse food during a shed, one time each)

most of mine i have had since they were between 1.5mo to 1 year old, and none of them have ever been nippy or defensive with me. ive kept them in screen top tanks with a towel over them (no longer use those), to nice display cages, to sterilite tubs in rack systems, as long as the temps/humidity are good, they are good

anywho, they are by far the easiest pets to take care of, at least IMO. we have several other types of pets and they all require much more maintenance than any of my snakes.
