I just got appointed to moderate this forum. So I thought I would get the ball rolling.
If you were able to get a snake, any snake, no matter what the price is. What snake would you get?

I myself would have to get the albino argentine rainbow.

t+: tyrosinase positive

this is a 3rd type of albino (pretty recent)
the other 2 are t- (kahl, and sharp)

these t+ animals have more coloration that the t- animals do. picture a hypo if you will with big red eyes!!!

hypomelanism is just a form of amelanism.

a good pic of a t+ argentine boa is at:
www.boabasement.com

hope that helps a bit.

I'd like a Mandarin Rat Snake or a Dumeril's Boa. So far all the Argentine Boa Constrictors I've seen have looked quite a bit like a Dumeril's. I prefer colubrids and smaller boids. At this point I'd take just about any Pitouphis, Lampropeltis, or Elaphe. I'd also like a Boa Constrictor (ssp not important) as soon as I can get the room for it. Funny how I'm on redtailboa.net without ever having owned any Boa Constrictor.

There are two snakes that come to mind... both are illegal to keep where I currently live. First off I would love a tiger rectic... I think they are stunning animals. I lack the space to keep one and they are illegal to keep in the 5 boro's of NYC. The second snake would be a yellow phase eyelash viper. They are a joy to look at, and I am very jealouse of naja's [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img] . Again they are illegal to keep in the 5 boro's of NYC, that goes for all hots. One of these day's...

Next on my mind is a puff-faced water snake, Homolopsis buccatta. As juveniles they are auburn and brown (sort of) and as adults, they are more blue-grey. Plus, they are quite hot, but not big and easy to feed on fish. But if I could, I'd love a green burm.

I would have to go with the Albino Homalapsis buccatta,
or a group of Enydris enydris.


But that could just be my bias for Homalapsine snakes showing through.


For a python, it would definately have to be a Morelia oenpeliensis.

good taste in snakes.
but in :
Berry, P.Y., and G.S. Lim. 1967. The breeding pattern of the puff-faced water snake, Homalopsis buccata Boulenger. Copeia 1967: 307-313.

I believe it states somewhere in that writing that no known side effects have been produced from this species in humans.
