Okay, so we all know that the vast majority of those of us frequenting this forum are Brazilian keepers, but I'm curious to see those of us who either are keeping other subspecies, or enjoy other ssp. but don't actually have them. It's time to stand-up and make your preferences count :)

I do not have a Brazilian (but one day may have one or more), but I do have what I believe to be a Guyana Rainbow (if you can provide an actual classification for this I'd be ecstatic) and an Argentine Rainbow.

Whachugot?

Great idea Todd!

I have a Brazilian Rainbow Boa, Cornsnake and a IJ Jag Carpet Python Each of my snakes is very different, the boa is very placid, the python is social and curious, and the corn is very skittish! I love learning about all the different species, but don't have the room or the money for any more!

I'd love to own an Indigo some day, though the permitting process is hard and I've heard they are messy.

Well I dont have the biggest collection in the world;

One brazilian rainbow
One cornsnake

Although I will be going to donny this september, so I am looking to get another BRB, a male this time, to pair up with my female. I'm also going to get a corn at the show, as my male is getting a bit old and ill, and the vet couldnt suggest anything for him, so am looking to get a stripe, either an amber stripe or a honey stripe. This is of course if my favourite corn morph isnt there.... A motley honey!

Oh man, they're messy alright. It's to be expected from a snake that usually eats every day, including when moulting. These are absolutely voracious and have *very* high metabolism. They'll chase anything that moves; fingers, faces, feet and so on

So I'm still the only one with Guyana & Argentine Rainbows? (scratches head and wanders off muttering something about always being the oddball)
