[darren0311]

like lgray said, i would advise on a ball python before a boa, boa's are nice and can be just as docile, but they are more prone to have snappier individuals, you should also consider corn or king snakes, their both super easy to care for and really docile, although they can be pretty fast, but would be better if you want to watch roam around a tank, theyre both pretty active during day hours, BP's tend to only come out towards dusk or night time. any of these are great begginers though, but just remeber that boas get about 8ft or so, and have been recorded up to 12, although thats usually with power feeding

How is that a cocky answer?

in short-You asked what they used, they said rack, and i was just making the point that for one snake a rack wouldn't be smart. "i never said you were getting a rack"

maybe you should just relax a little bit.

Check out FaunaClassifieds.com. You should easily be able to find a breeder in your area

craigslist is always good, theres always poor snakes on there that need good homes

I have been looking at Albino Ball Pythons and they are starting in the range 0f $300 +, Does anyone have any idea what i would save at a show/Expo for one of these?

[cmack91]

i think i saw albinos at mine for like 2-250, and one for 3-400 but it was really cool, i cant think of what else it was though, ive only been to this one show so i cant really say whats average
