Should I or shouldn't I?

There is a whole litter of them, but I haven't bonded in any way....until someone brought one back. The guy didn't pay attention to what a new baby is like and he got scared and brought him back. He rejected him after a couple of days. He never gave the baby a chance. Of course I have a soft spot for the rejected one. He is special. He needs more love.

That is the one I want. I think I am going to do it. As you say, boas are nice creatures. This wouldn't be as big as the ones you saw. They were probably Colombian red tailed boas. or something like them. Rainbows are less common.

I am still thinking it through. It is a twenty year commitment. I had the Berber skink 12 years. I think the fire skink might live 20 years. Lots of cats and dogs live that long. I am just thinking about it before I make a commitment.
