Choosing a species

[Stewart_Reptiles]

Thank you all for your replies! I think I'm gonna look into some colubrids and dwarf boas
Does anyone here keep hognoses? I think they're absolutely adorable but I've heard they can be pretty difficult

I do and I also breed them.

They are adorable and they are not difficult (well at least not the females), I always recommend people looking for pet hognose to get a female, male have a tendency to be difficult and picky feeder at times.

One thing I also always remind people is that while they are not prone to bite (I am usually a bite magnet and never been bit) and that they are read fanged (which is a poor venom delivery system) they are however considered mildly venomous, nothing that will kill you, generally speaking it's a bit of swelling but some people have had swelling up to their arms, your possible reaction really comes down to your immune system, if you are allergic to bee stings and such I would not recommend them but instead recommend sand boas which are similar in size.
