Really enjoyed your video. I had spent several months doing research on Children's Python's and Rosy Boas for care and enclosure size as well as handleability. Both snakes have a very nice handleability score and similar requirements for temperature and enclosure size. I went to our local annual Reptile Expo and purchased a male Rosy Boa after looking around for hours. I did see a nice Children's Python but another guy made an offer that was accepted before I could ask. My male Rosy is the Mexican color version with the dark nearly black stripes over a creamy base color. AS you noted the snake may have a fairly long lifespan as my Rosy does and at my age he will be alive thru most if not all of my retirement years.
