cool animals! depends why you want a pet

Every Tim you pick them up, they're like, Wait, are you a predator? What is going on? Are you a moving tree? What is going on with you? Yeah. It's not like they're ever going to give you a fee back. They are cool though

And so I'll just say this that I think it's like an Apple a day keeps other doctor away. A snake keeps a lot of people away. So if you do get one, just let us know how it's going

Dead skin and mice

But if you can get past that, picking that out of a cage, I think you'd be fine. The other thing is, it's not cheap. I've had roommates that had snakes, and I think Terrarium is what you call them. No matter how small the snake is, when they start off, they grow through a couple of those. You need to keep buying bigger and bigger cages. You need the ultraviolet light. You need a couple of places within the Terrarium

Thanks for the feedback!

Just want to thank everyone for all the feedback and thoughts around snakes. Tim, thanks for sharing your anecdote. Totally. Okay. If they don't recognize me, I could just project that they care about out me, but I think they're cool. And I've had a pet praying Mantis, so I understand what it's like to not have that much affection from a pet. I'm curious

Okay, well, I am a very experienced snake owner. I've handled and captured many, many different species, non venomous and venomous. Believe it or not, I actually have a scar from a yellow and a condo, not a green one, but they're almost as big as the green one. And it was easily the most aggressive snake I've ever come across. Anyway, for your first snake, if you do want to get a snake, let me give you some tips

Leaning towards getting a milk snake! Buy online vs. in person?

Thanks. Astral Alchemist. That's great to hear that you have a bunch of snakes. That's awesome. I also have been researching snakes and snakes. Milk snakes, corn snakes, King snakes. Snakes are snakes I'd be interested in. I got to see some at a reptile show a year ago, and their patterns are just really gorgeous. I also spent some time with a sandboa, and I agree they're kind of boring
