Quality BHP, how to choose

I am looking at getting my first BHP and have been shown some lovely pic's, the problem is what do you look for , stripes position or more red or less colour along the back???
I have no idea what to look for, I just know I love the LOOK of them and want one.
Does anyone have any suggestions to help me know what I should be looking for ?

Thanks any help would be good

RE: Quality BHP, how to choose

any bhp is good in my opinion, but everybodys thoughts will differ on what it the best looking, I prefer N.Ts which usually dont have a black strip all the way down their back, but others love Qld Bhps with the stripe! i think the more you end up paying, the more asthetically pleasing it will be (not in all cases but). either way you will be very happy owning one!!!

Buy the snake which appeals to YOU the most! I really like the animals with strongly contrasting bands down the body, not to mention the new ivory BHPs

One that is breathing and eating :wink:

Bumblebee is the best looking in my opinion.

Try and get little black shade on its back as passable a nice light cream colour with dark stripes and as juvs an orange belly is not bad as well.
NT bhp r generally the better local nicer and more defined markings
