Tree Boids?

I will give this long, hard thought, but just to be clear, money isn't a deciding factor. It is more of a "guideline".

If i needed to go off budget for the animal's sake, I would. That being said, I think an ATB would be my best bet. It is more "forgiving", in terms of husbandry, can be "tamed" down (however, I do like their attitudes!), and comes in a dazzling array of colors. With leftover monies, I would be able to buy/build a much larger terrarium, with more to offer in terms of husbandry for the snake.

What do you mean by tamed down? Because green tree pythons and emerald tree boas can be tamed down just as well. If anything, I heard ATB's are the hardest to tame down.

But I understand where you are coming from. Pay less for the snake, and more for the husbandry to take care of it.

From talking to the breeders on this forum, they say that atb's tame down just as easy an a corn snake if handled from a baby.

same thing could be said for gtp's or etb's. Look at cutegayjasons videos on youtube. All his green tree pythons and emerald tree boas are "tame". And by all I mean he has a lot of them.
