Your favorite snake species

Okay, how about next time you make a rule like you have to post a pic, or at least a link to a pic of any newly mentioned species!! I had to spend the better part of my lunch time looking up the snakes I wasn't sure of! :frustrate
My two favorites, other than my beloved Royals, are the Green Tree python and the Dwarf Reticulated python (no I don't have pics, or links I can use, either! :rolleyes: ) A friend in my herp society has a yellow headed dwarf retic. that I just can't take my eyes off of when she brings her to gatherings. Totally to die for!!! :headbang:

My second favorite are Emerald Tree Boas. They are beautiful snakes.

ok let me see I love all the morelia famoly, and the eye lash viper and gaboon are just sick, retic are just wow all the mophr are cool but they get to big for me,and seas snakes are the cooleste expesiality the yellow belly seas snake, and seeing more and more species of snakes if I but all that I like it will be a big list

after BPs, RTB, and then corns.

Speaking of rattlers, canebrakes rock.

I know that they are beautiful and docile, but I have to draw the line somewhere and a 6 foot thick-bodied constrictor seems to be my limit. I am sure that I could get a dumeril to become dog tame, but still, I just don't think I would ever feel like I could let myself go with one and try to bond with it because I would constantly feel the need to be on guard. Hopefully someday, breeders can breed some dwarf dumerils that grow to maybe 4 feet so the average snake keeper like myself can feel comfortable caring for them.

Really? How long is it? I didn't think that there was such a thing as a dwarf dumeril.

I got her from Classic Dum's. They are going out of business.. they have lots of ads on kingsnake though.
