Bigger Beginner Snakes?

So just wanted to update this thread as its accumilated more respones. I finally decided on a Ball Python :) In the beginning of this thread I wasnt really sure how my mom would react to a bigger snake or even the idea of a bigger snake. Now with my little dude Dean she is absolutly in love(Although she has to be in a really brave mood to hold him) She is always commenting on how cute he is :) I actually mentioned getting a reticulated python in the wayyyyyy future(After college and than some) and she actually said she would be fine with that :O She's come a long way with liking snakes since we've had Dean. She actually keeps pestering me about breeding snakes and thinks I should breed Corns or Balls. Some time though I'll get a Albino(Khal) Boa or a Hog Island Boa :D

Anyway, thanks for reading this horribly spelled update post!
