View Full Version : Which python to purchase?
earthpig23 11-17-2008, 12:59 AM Okay I am going to be saving here and there for a nice python to add to my collection so going to just check my BLBC to see which one they think
now I hae rainbow boas, corns, kings, chilldrens pythons, balls, and getting the wife some albino bloods as well
so pick one you shuld think I should get ..prolly wont change my mind but bored and thought it be fun to see what youd choose.
I am thinking SD retic, blackhead, or woma?
Sputnik 11-17-2008, 01:02 AM If space is an issue, Womas don't get huge.... If you get a SD.... ask around who to get one from so you get the real deal. :yessir:

yeah if I go SD i will ask some bush leaguers to help out with that
grunt_11b2007 11-17-2008, 01:17 AM Black heads rock!! Boelens are also very cool.. But from your list I would definately go blackheads.

JOHNS6068 11-17-2008, 02:06 AM I'd go with the black head. I think they are pretty cool looking myself =)
147BOAS 11-17-2008, 02:15 AM black heads are really cool
African Beast 11-17-2008, 05:47 AM Nobody using their noggen???

I am thinking SD retic, blackhead, or woma?
I voted 'other' LOL, just get all three and grin about it.
I have Womas and love em but I'd go with the BH's...:yessir:
JChandler 11-17-2008, 07:10 AM I would say go with the SD but then you throw woma's and black heads in there....I say go with them. My male woma is the coolest snake!
tokaysunlimited 11-17-2008, 07:20 AM I voted OTHER!!!Because when you come to visit this spring your going to have to bring a blackhead with ya and it might get lost here.
And i sayget a scrub python.:cool:
Mrs. Sputnik 11-17-2008, 07:37 AM Really depends on budget you have in mind but that being said........... woma, BH, then retic
FloridaHogs 11-17-2008, 08:01 AM I say go with Woma. Put the retic off until you are going to be home for a while.

yeah your one of the reasons i have been even more wanting a retic since your pics on here. I have always loved the beautiful colors and patterns of the retics.
I voted 'other' LOL, just get all three and grin about it.
my kind of man lmao
I have Womas and love em but I'd go with the BH's...:yessir:
yeah they are definitly tops on my list
I would say go with the SD but then you throw woma's and black heads in there....I say go with them. My male woma is the coolest snake!
so your saying all three as well LOL I know we talked on the phone about the SD's but I have loved seeing your woma and the pics of scott's
I voted OTHER!!!Because when you come to visit this spring your going to have to bring a blackhead with ya and it might get lost here.
And i sayget a scrub python.:cool:
scrubs are another...damn its hard to choose may just have to get one of freakin each lmao
and i think ill keep good track og the BH while im at your place :lol:
I say go with Woma. Put the retic off until you are going to be home for a while.
yeah I gree thats why if i go retic for now it will have to be the super dwarf till I am not deploying all the time then ill jump in and get a nice colorful retic just for the beast.
luciddream 11-17-2008, 11:05 AM From your list, I'd go with the SD or black heads.. Black heads rock, but are SUPER expensive, as far as I've seen, anyway. It really boils down to what kind of snake you'd like.. I don't know a whole lot about black head personality, SD retics can be pretty active snakes. They can also be chainsaws. It's very possible to either get a "tame" one, or "tame" one down a bit, but they more generally bite first, ask questions later. My little girl was very defensive when I first got her. She is alot more laid back now, but still will snap or smack her head into the tub if someone walks by too fast or if you go to grab her without using the hook first. Like others said, if you go with the super dwarf, you will want to get it from someone reputable or someone you trust. There are alot of people out there selling normal hatchlings as SD's.. You're expecting a 10 ft snake, but end up with a 20 ft'er. Not cool.
smilin-buddha 11-17-2008, 11:07 AM Having both I would go with the Blackheads. I do love my Womas. But there is something about those Blackheads. That keeps calling me.
Larry 11-17-2008, 06:21 PM Nice poll brother. My vote is blackhead all the wayy. I'm getting a pair this I vow!
earthpig23 11-17-2008, 06:25 PM thanks all for the input. I am definitly putting away for the blackheads i just can't get them out of my head really either.
With the SD i need a snake to tame as most of mine are kittens lol
Whats the range on both the BH and the SD retics? for good specimens from a good source i should say
ScrubyScrubyDoo 11-17-2008, 07:07 PM I say go Scrubs or any Indo Species...
Perhaps even a nice pair of Black Phase White Lips.....:devil:
earthpig23 11-17-2008, 07:13 PM I say go Scrubs or any Indo Species...
Perhaps even a nice pair of Black Phase White Lips.....:devil:
yeah id figure youd say that with your tempting scrub pics that you post:devil:
i have thought about the scrubs as well saw some at tinley and liked em even more up close
ReptileMan27 11-19-2008, 12:22 AM Black headed pythons are awesome but not cheap. I would get one if I could afford one. Womas are sweet to..
ChristianC 11-19-2008, 12:30 AM I voted Woma just cause i personally have always wanted one. I love those carrot heads!
Cornball 11-19-2008, 09:09 AM Blackheads are very cool!
Mike go with a female woma then Jeff and I can babysit . LOL
Seriously though I'd go with the BHs.
anendeloflorien 11-19-2008, 09:37 AM I voted Woma just cuz they're such an awesome snake with a killer feeding response. But there's always Afrocks if you're looking for a big snake! They've got a tude sometimes but they're usually pretty cool.
I saw the sweetest SD retic the other day at NERD. It was only about 2.5 feet long but just had the nicest temperment I've ever seen in a tic. It was just looking all around and checking out my girlfriend lol. I love the colors on them too! I'm thinking about getting one someday(I say that way too much around here lol).
SNSnakes 11-22-2008, 11:59 AM Blackheads are on my wishlist too...cool snake. But for something within reach pricewise...Bredli carpet (especially a hypo...WAY cool!) or Aussie olive! I have olives and they are very cool snakes! Cage defensive, but puppy dogs when you get them out. Also very good eaters! Not much for color or pattern, but they have a cool personality!
jknudson 11-22-2008, 12:06 PM Well seeing as I want all four of those.... I'd say... get them all eventually... but, the retic will need you to be there so it doesn't turn into a terror...work with them, establish trust...etc. So I voted blackhead, there is something about those snakes man!
Also... one of my favorites not listed, Olive pythons. Just adding another option! :lol:

thanks lke i needed that i know i forgot olives and scrubs those are on the want list as well
African Beast 11-24-2008, 02:42 AM I do not understand why you are letting these fools confuse you...a retic is the ONLY answer that makes any sense...
I NEED you to get that retic!!!!!!

xanaxez 11-24-2008, 02:45 AM i voted other lol i think you should get a nice diamond jag
Gator 11-25-2008, 12:51 AM I don't know what your situation is, but you can't go wrong w/womas or BH. I just voted for the Woma on personality and I personally like its appearance more. There are BLBC'ers here who have forgotten more than I'll ever know, so just take my vote w/ a grain of salt :lol:
