So I've never had a snake before and was wondering which breeds would be good for a first time snake mommy? I've always been interested in various pythons and boa constrictors. From my very limited experience with snakes, I do know that the bermese python is the most dossile. I'd really appreciate if somebody could give me feedback and tell me what to expect when owning a snake for the first time. Are their illnesses that different snake breeds are prone to? I know it sounds cruel, but I do plan on feeding live rodents as I feel it's better for them neutritionally. In addition to live rodents, are there any other supplemental needs that snakes should have in their diet?

thanks

Victoria
