    What should my next snake be?

    I will be saving up my money for another addition this fall/winter The question is, what will it be? I really want a boa but I decided I'm going to wait for next year to get one, so that by the time it gets big I will have already graduated.

    I want something
    -For a pet not for breeding.
    -Manageable size since I move back and forth from home twice a year because I'm in college.
    -Not too delicate, because like I said I will need to move it periodically.

    I already have two balls and a corn so you tell me what the next "must-have" will be for my collection

    I always wanted a carpet. Still do in fact. I know how people feel about hybrids but the carpet/ball cross was an amazing looking snake.

    Re: What should my next snake be?

    I suggest a carpet. They're very pretty and a lot of people have a lot of fun with them.
    The next runner up for me would be a blood. I don't know anything about short-tails and you sound like you want something new.

    Or you could go the cheapest and buy a reeeeally pretty corn snake, like the lavender hypo or an opal or something awesome.

    Just my idea. ;]

    Id go for an IJ.

    Carpets are really easy to manage, and they look good

    I loooove boas... but like I said I decided to be responsible and wait... oh the agony
    That snake is HOT... although... call me a purist but I prefer to steer away from hybrids!

    I have wanted an IJ for quite some time. They are so gorgeous. Although I also love how bloods/short-tails look. I wonder if a carpet would be easier to manage than a blood/short-tail? Probably, right?
