bhp or woma

[Nikki.]

Which would be better for a pet snake for me! a bhp or a woma ? , even though they are related are there any differences between temperment ect.. my dad would preffer the bhp , but they are really tough

Steer clear of Wombas as they get very big and will dig big holes in the garden.

 

[Nikki.]

so what about a bhp ?

 

[mitchdiamond]

If you mean Woma not Womba.
I like Woma's more than BHP's.
You need a NSW class 2 for Woma's.

from what i understand bhps don't often bite just headbut but womas will try eat your thumb

 

[Nikki.]

hmm .... i'll see whats on the class 1 list

 

[DA_GRIZ]

womas are on class 2 which sucks bhps or on class 1 and most carpets are class 1

It is a matter of opinion only, they are both very similar in temperament, which is generally very placid. Only thing is BHPs tend to grow larger than Womas per se, although Womas will differ in size depending on their origin, eg Tanami, Uluru etc...

My point was if you don't even know what they are called should you be contemplating getting one ?
How long have you been keeping and what snakes have you kept ?

Boa - Nikki is 11yrs old and has recently acquired her first snake - a Bredli. In saying that though, most of us were quite amazed at the amount of research she put in before purchasing - especially for her age (no offense meant Nikki)...

Don't worry Nikki - you have two years to learn about Womas as they are Class 2 in NSW...

nikki u are probably taking it the wrong way

ppl are just saying not so much of a good idea to go from a bredli straight to a bhp
