I used to have hognosed in my yard a few years back. They were awesome to watch, as I called them the actors of the snake kingdom. When discovered, they would first coil up and shake their tails, then puff out their heads in a cobra-fashion. Finally, if the big two-legged intruder didn't go away, they played dead. Very entertaining, but I never kept any as pets because they were so useful in the yard, eating palmetto bugs mostly.

A friend of mine in college was asking about keeping a snake and I steered her toward corns. She loves the color variations that are available and their temperment reputation. ^_^

All three of those choices are excellent. Definitely go with whichever one you like the most. Remember there are a lot of color combinations out there these days, so you can also get a very beautiful snake that you'll love showing off. ^_^

And post pictures when you get one!

And... maybe get the tank all set up first, before purchasing?
