    Lots of ideas....but it really depends on what you want in a snake. Do you have any preferences besides size? Color? Boidae or colubrid? Price? Beginner or advanced care needs?


    My best advice would be to lurk through forums on a variety of different snakes until you find the one(s) that fascinate you the most...then start asking questions of the people that keep those. :)

    How about a hogg island boa? Or a Jungle Carpet Python? Or a corn snake? Or a King snake?

    You have to give us more info. Do you want to be able to handle it, or do you want it to be a display animal?

    Colubrids are skinny, like corn snakes and king snakes.

    Boidae are boas and pythons.

    childrens and stimsons pythons are something to look into, they are smaller than BP's but they are a very cool species.

    Jungle Carpet Python. They get longer than a BP, but stay thinner. Mine eats like a pig too. Easy to care for and beautiful colors.

    I have a full-grown spotted python @ 45". Look at him in my gallery. Eats like a pig, easy to care for, and handleable ! Ask me any questions about them and children's pythons, which are the same genus. Research genus: antaresia
    spotted python: antaresia maculosa
    children's python: antaresia childreni
