Hey guys, this is not an ID thread, or at least, I don't have a picture or a particular species in mind.
My brother has taken up an interest in Milk Snakes. He isn't really a "forum" person, and I am much more advanced in animal care than he is, so I am going to ask afew questions.
I need to know if there is a Milk Snake (or actually any snake) that matches this description?
--cheap, under $60
--widespread (found often at petstore chains)
--requires a minimum tank of 10 gallon size
--achieves less than 3 feet in legth
--unlikely to bite if handled properly
--at least somewhat easy to feed
Any snake come to mind? I am aware that many varieties of Milk Snake will not meet this criteria (especially the "cheap" part), but I thought I'd ask.
He is working on a Boy Scout Merit Badge called Reptile and Amphibian Study, and one of the requirements (8a I believe) is to keep an amphib or rept for 1 month. My brother will keep it as long as it lives, but 1 month is simply the minimum for the requirement.
I am also working on the same Merit Badge, but I already happily own a cute, half-dollar size green C. cranwelli pacman frog. :D
If you guys can think of something, that would be really helpful! If you cannot think of anything that may match the discription, please say so, so that we caan get a better idea of if this will work or not.
Thanks!
