Smaller boa breeds?
I currently have a hog island boa, and a ball python. I am looking into getting another snake sometime in the near future, and my parents would like it if i stay smaller for now (haha) I would like to stay under 7 feet.
Suggestions please?

Irian Jaya Carpet Python. That is my dream snake. If you get a male it stays under 7 feet. If you want something even smaller than a Irian Jaya then corn snakes are a blast. Very hyper and fun to handle.

I got a Brazilian Rainbow and she's great...very nocturnal though so if you want a snake to "watch" it may not be the first choice! Fits with your size requirements though.

I was just about to recommend those
But i would also recommend any of the Rainbow Boas, be it Brazilian, Peruvian, etc. I have a Brazilian, and he is just such a great animal to own. He does require a higher humidity than other Boa species, but if you can get that down, they are a joy to have!
