>>Hello...

>>

>> My knowledge about snakes is still in its infancy, but I have always wanted a snake and I am now looking to get one (now that I am moving out of my mother's house)...

>>

>> I have been looking at different snakes that I would like to get and here are a couple of things that concern me...

>>

>>

>>I Want A Snake That:

>>

>>1.) Will not kill me & is usually calm. (Nipping at me is bad.)



most baby snakes will nip.

>>

>>2.) Sounds cool. Certain names sound really cool, some sound wimpy. "Ball Python" sounds cooler than "Milk Snake."



the name of the snake should not be important. if what matters to you is if it sound cool maybe you should reconsiter getting a snake.

>>

>>3.) Is colorful. Ball Pythons are a bit camouflage-y and brown, while King Snakes & Milk Snakes are very colorful.



some king and milk snake are also plain. some morphs of ball pythons are very colorfull

>>

>>4.) Is large! 5 Feet is OK, but 8 Feet would be better.



you might not want to start out with a "huge snake" imo is not a good reason to pick a snake. it may play a factor.

>>

>>5.) Is Calm, Colorful, & Huge!

>>Thank you!!!
