I need help choosing a new snake
i have a kingsnake right now, i am going to sell it because it is to agressive and im just not really into kingsnakes. I need suggestions of snakes i can buy, here is my requirements...
My budget is 50-300 us dollars and the snake must be 2-4 feet or smaller.
I was looking into hognoses or keynan sand boas. Any other suggestions?

Any African House Snake will do...
There are few species to chose they are very calm and really cool looking...
And Cape House Snake offer few morphs to chose like albino patternless striped anerystic and so...

Hognose's are pretty cool, a few cool morphs are available too.

I love our W. hognose! He is a sweetheart, and he is just the cutest thing.
They're really easy to care for too, and are good eaters, in my experience.
Some of them can be huge jerks, but you just need to shop around and get the right one! The ones that are jerks, will just strike at you with it's mouth closed, so they will headbutt you, and it is very cute.
I recommend a hognose!
Reach for the stars, and if you don't grab them at least you'll fall on top of the world.

A cool hog morph are anacondas. But way over the $300 budget...albinos are pretty cool. Your could try and find a tricolor hoggy. They are neat. Also some snakes that are really underestimated on the cool snake factor are garters. I Have an albino checkered male and he's the coolest thing ever. Always going none stop.....look around there are some pretty sick variants of garters out there...and some gorgeous natural colored ones to (Puget sound, flames, red sided, etc.)

I second the hognose. I love my normal girl. Personally I like the normals and think they are beautiful. Regular albinos have come down in price also. They stay small and have great personalities. And those little faces are just adorable. 
I handle my hognose pretty often. She will set in my hand or lap and hang out like my ball python, while with my kingsnake and milksnake you are always having to keep moving with them while handling.
