My GTP has never bitten or even tried to bite me. I think the reputation comes from wild caught or 'farmed' imports that get shoved in a bag and shipped across the world. The captive bred ones I've seen are fairly placid although all animals have different personalities.
I dont believe GTPs really eat birds, they normally hang close to the ground and eat rodents. I can't speak for the boas.
So I have no experience with them, but I read a little into GTB's and pythons. It seems the boas are almost always pretty nasty, captive bred or not. I think the guy on the bill strand podcast said you have to expect to get bit at some point. I thought I heard of the pythons being more easy going.
