I need help choosing a new snake

[Kinra]

Children's pythons and Spotted pythons are small and within budget. I personally love my KSB and I want a hognose some day. There are a lot of cool snakes out there that stay small.

Get an amazon tree boa!

Nah, definitely check out western hognose. I used to keep several hognose. They are awesome little guys! Just don't let them get ahold of ya, they can light ya up good. Like has been said, they are usually great eaters. I miss ours, but we had to sell them to help pay for our move.

Another vote for the Hognose! I absolutely LOVE my hoggie, Charlotte, and they are just such a neat little snake... full of personality, which can be good or bad depending on their mood. Mine is usually a cuddly sweetheart, but she does have her bouts of crankiness - nothing more than some hissing & hooding, though, as they rarely resort to biting. I handle mine almost daily, as she usually demands to be let out, but I'm sure they're all different. Definitely consider getting one!

Yup. Mine is a total HOG, true to her name! She is literally a garbage can, and will take anything I offer - so she often gets the python's leftovers, if my corns (also garbage cans) are already full enough. Btw, mine only gets f/t mice, since the one live meal I gave her was quite a debacle. It's actually fun to feed her f/t, as she gets all cobra-like about it... posturing, hooding, hissing, and finally nomming it with one BIG bite. Cool!

P.S. One thing I quickly learned was to grasp the mouse (using tongs) by their neck, rather than the usual tail dangling... since they don't constrict, it's like watching a kid swing at a pinata when you dangle it. LOL

I'd like to know what the problem is with the King. Is it the aggressiveness? You need to work with them. Any snake can be aggressive if it's not handled properly.

I second this!!! the key to a tame snake buddy is to handle it.. and trust me no matter what snake you get you're probably gonna get bit at some point or another lol so suck it up and expect it.. but i would suggest maybe a dwarf boa of some ort.. most males stay 4 ft or under and the females usually about 5 ft or so... plus there are some cool morphs too and they are great convo starters...
