New baby Boa, Pics (Dumerils)

Thanks everyone I appreciated the compliments on her.
What drew me to the boa's is their head shape, I love the look, so refined and chiseled looking, very muscular. It's been a number of years since I've held any other snake except my corn snake and I couldn't believe how soft she felt (the boa).
I have watched a lot of videos of them online and the seem to just have an overall great demeanor, very inquisitive.
Oh and can't forget their little Frenchmen mustache and goatee it's so adorable as well.
I'm sure I could go on and on why they are my favorite and I've only had her a few days.
If anyone else wants to add what they love most about boas feel free at add in to the list I'd also love to hear what your favorite features are.

I enjoy their large size and girth, but not overwhelming like the giants.
I also like their generally laid back demeanor and the fact that they are a good snake to "chill" with when watching tv for example. I also like their eyes and head.

Exactly. They're big snakes, but not BIG snakes. It won't be a challenge to feed or house it when it's full grown. I love the really big snakes like retics, burms, and anacondas, but I have limited room in the house and I don't know where I'd get big enough food for a snake like that.

I've been looking at a Dumeril's since I was a teenager, and have always love the pattern, disposition, and size.
