Ive currently have 5 snakes, none I would consider difficult by any means..started with a corn, then a ball, then a bull, then a RTB, then a Russian Rat. All are well kept for, and doing wonderful. And tend to add 1 snake a year (been keeping snakes for about 6 years..havent bought one since the Russian Rat last July from Tim Spuckler, so Im over due)

Im looking to upgrade my collection this summer/fall..and the Australian reptiles have had my eye for about 3 years now..Ive done a ton a of reading and followed this forum closely, and am still no closer on a decision. Bredli? Woma? Coastal? Jungle? Blackheads are out of my price range, along with most Diamonds Ive seen for sale. An Olive would be my #1 choice, but are illegal in the county I currently reside..oddly enough if I moved about 7 blocks south into the neighboring county I could have an Olive. Oh well.

Which do you guys think would be the next logical step in my progression and which is a good intro into Australian snakes.

I know ultimately the decision is mine to make, but after all the reading Ive done, i feel input from people who keeps these snakes is a good idea. Im mostly looking for temperament and hoping to avoid feeding issues.

Essentially looking for an intro into Australian snakes, but skipping the Childrens and Spotted (smaller) snakes
