    My corn is NOT nippy in the slightest actually. He was my second snake after my BP, and he is quite active and very beautiful. They are very easy to care for, don't get very big, and are a joy to keep in my opinion.

    Re: another snake

    Thanks for all the help guys! This hobby is too addictive. It drives me crazy!

    I've been researching a lot about all of these guys and I think I'm stuck on getting a red tail boa. I know eventually I will get a corn.

    Thanks again guys and gals and don't forget to

    I send the Carpet Python. Super easy to care for, very sweet with lots of handling.

    I even think that some carpets could even be the "first" snake. Corns are fast squirrly and pee on you a lot. So if your not used to a fast snake, a corn might get away from you!

    If you didn't want too large of a snake you could opt for one of the smaller species of RTB.
    1.0 Normal Ball Python
    1.0 Western Hognose
    0.1 Brazilian Rainbow Boa
    1.0 Hypo Columbian Red Tail Boa

    Re: another snake

    I would go for a blood, carpet or maybe a male Colombian RTB

    Re: another snake

    Actually a Blood Python was my first choice they are pretty cool but I've read they are very unforgiving and aren't a good choice for someone somewhat new.

    Anyone heard anything about ratsnakes?

    Male RTBs dont get to big.

    I also have a ratsnake, he is a Biards rat snake. Great animal, and the change they go through is amazing! I would love to have a mexacan black king, and well as a lucy texas rat! More things to consider!
