I have recently come to the conclusion that I love snakes!
I have never owned a snake and am a little overwhelmed at the many species available. I know what I am looking for in a snake but don't know what species best suits me. Any advice would be appreciated.

1. A good sized snake (4-6 ft at adulthood).
2. Manageable. I don't want to get bitten everytime I need to move the snake. I know their not puppies, but work with me.
3. Beautiful. I like the look of boas, pythons, etc. But can't get over the 15 foot length.
4. Easy. I need a snake that is good for a begginer. Not easily killed. -Don't take this the wrong way, I fully intend to take care of it, but don't want a super sensative species.
5. Price. Needs to be 1K or under.

hmmm...I think that is it.
Thanks in advance.
