One of Those "What Should I Get" Threads

[Jay_Bunny]

Sometime this Fall/Winter I want to get another snake. I'm not quite sure what I want to get. If I decide I want a snake I've never kept before, I will definitely be doing my research before bringing one home. I'm open to suggestions, but I draw the line at hots and really big snakes. (nothing over 9ft) Here is what I currently have...

Ball Pythons:
0.3 Normal
1.0 100% Het. Pied Normal
0.1 Pinstripe
1.1 Pastel
1.0 Spider

0.1 Colombian Red Tail Boa

Corn Snakes:
0.1 Snow
1.0 Hypo
1.0 Pastel (Ghost)

What are you looking for in your next snake? something on the larger side? something you can take out and handle a lot? a display snake? or just something weird out of the norm? whats your price range?

I voted "other" because any conventional choices have no appeal to me personally, and there's tons more species than what you mentioned: dumerils boas, rosy boas, childrens pythons, spotted pythons, womas, amazon tree boas, emerald tree boas, hog island boas, rainbow boas, Pacific boas sp, rubber boas,

Well, knowing your situation with your roomies and the possibility of you being found out by your land lords, I think you should stick to an easy to care for and small Sand Boa.

I didn't vote but I just would narrow it down in my mind to a list of different snakes that I would like to own and would go to a show with money in my pocket. I would look around and see if somebody had a nice snake at the right price for me.

Actually the situation with the roommates is pretty much over. They are finding their own place and will hopefully be signing a lease by the end of the month and be moved out by October.

As far as what I want in a snake. I want a snake that is not too large, preferably able to handle it, but its not a requirement. Since I already have 8 ball pythons and 3 corn snakes, I want something out of my "ordinary". My price range is no more than $500.

I would go with some sort of locality boa. I was over at BT's (BT40142) house last night and saw Corn Island boas and was amazed with them. The dwarf boas are very awesome.

Well you could always get a female het pied.

also, I love my BRB but he is super tame lol.

carpets are pretty awesome as well.

I made a poll like this earlier and the answer was: carpet python. I think a carpet would be a great new addition to your collection. Either that or a blood python. Of course that's just me.

I would get either a GTP or Kenyan Sand Boa. They are both awesome snakes.
