best thing is to show your good upkeep and your not board with what you already have.Not sure on your age but dont get something big if you plan on going away to school or other such big trips all the time.Think long term.Good luck,dont know your parents so cant really help too much.

What is for begginers and what is not is a great deal of discusion. Some guys are so inresponsable and whit such a lack of comon sence that they arent even capable of keeping near bulet proof species like bearded dragons or adult sliders sucessfullyRonTheRHOM;1889613; said:
. On the other hand there are guys that are begginers but that are so knowlege of what their doing from doing such amout of reserch that they sucssed in keeping and breeding non easy herps like dart frogs and chamelions
I know that because Ive seen both first hand (unfornatly most of the first case
) So if this guys wants a blood python, has the condicions to have one and is able to find captive breds , this doesant seems such a bad choice comparing to red tail boas. They both require more or less the same amouth of care and give the owner the oportunity to have a big snake without the hazzards of having one of the big pythons, say burmese ,retics,etc
Check out some of the prefab cages like boaphile plastics, they're pretty reasonably priced and easier to keep clean than a wood cage.

Ditto...start adding up the cost of getting an appropriately-sized glass tank, getting it fitted with a secure screen top and heating it adequately...thos boaphiles don't look bad at all.

that is fair enough i suppose.
i said they arnt beginner snakes coz ive handled a few and known a few people with them and they can be a bit snappy, the info in that link also backs that up. thats the only reason tho
