My daughter and I both do educational shows at schools and such with our snakes. We have a couple kingsnakes and a couple ball pythons. I'd like to add a slightly bigger snake, but very placid (kids often make too quick movements around my snakes - you tell them not to, but it happens) and a reasonable size for me and eventually my daughter to carry around while educating. We're both rather slight, 5'1". I've been thinking of getting a baby male snake, either a pure hog island or a cauker island, and raise it as I did my other 4 educational snakes. Or perhaps trying to work with my husband's 2 year-old male dumerils.

I'm really not sure which way to go, and would appreciate all advice and suggestions. And feel free to suggest a snake I haven't thought of, if you think it'd be great for this! Thanks!
