Hello! I am new to this forum, and to reptiles. I am looking to get my first snake when I'm either thirteen or fourteen, I need help choosing which snake to start with out of my top picks (I am also open to suggestions) My top picks are: Ball Python, Borneo Shorttail (or Blood Python), Woma Python, Rosy Boa, Corn Snake, Kingsnake, Western Hognose, Boa Constrictor. I am looking for something I can spend time with, a good handling snake, as well as a good pet snake. And I really like larger animals (I am open to small ones too.) I also like ones that are not overly slow moving, but not flighty or super quick. Any Suggestions? And which one do you think is good for a starting snake for someone young? Thank you for reading![]()
