Hello all

Had some great suggestions here for a first King, but got to thinking about - finding a nice "display snake" to have...

Have a gorgeous corn - but is always in hiding, have a gorgeous hypo false water cobra - always in hiding too (and has now become persona non-grata since the family discovered it's "hot".

So basically I display tanks of aspen, water bowls, and hides.

So - started thinking of a showy display snake that actually makes a public appearance.

The colorful "aboreals" and beauty snakes are way too over the top for younger hands, the falsey has to go for the same reasons, and a lot of the colorful boas and pythons just get wayyy to big.

So now what else to consider?

Thanks for any ideas!
