Thank you all very much for all your suggestions. Every one of them are very beautiful animals. I am leaning towards either the coastal carpet, the brendli carpet, or possibly the white lip. Does anyone know if there are any defining characteristics that make any of these snakes better to keep than the others. I know most of the choice is the owners personal likes but I would like to hear from others who may own one or all of the snakes I listed and share anything that may set one off from the other. Thanks again
