I have a gorgeous male cornsnake that is now just under three feet. He's clean, docile, entertaining, and not to mention- a conversation starter. I'm looking into a female companion, too.

I love my corn snake.. I got her as a hatchling she is now 6 years old and almost 5 1/2 feet long. I feed her about once a week and have never had to have a heating system in her tank. I have found that using a wooded enviroment for her makes it easier for her a shedding time and she seems to shed about once to twice a month. I highly recommend a 55 gallon tank or bigger due to they like to strech out, but they also like to escape so please make sure that your tank is closed up good. if they can get their nose through their body will be next.
Honestly one of the BEST PETS for children. Very sweet and LOW in cost to care for. my daughter was 2 when we got her and is now 8 years old and has been handling her since day 1. I highly recommend a corn snake for people that want to start raising reptiles. unlike the grass snake or king snake. they are so much easier for a child to handle.{not as fast or skittish}

My rose haired tarantula is named Rosie. She is very low matenince and cost only $50.00(plus tax).It's real cool to watch her climb around.One night, right after we got her, she fell asleep eating a cricket(LOL).

Our Red-tail Boa, Big Louie, is almost 3 years old. He's always been a great eater, easy to handle and easy to care for. He's a beautiful and enjoyable pet. He's never struck at us, and has always been a very mellow pet. I've always thought if he was a dog, he'd be a Basset Hound. Happy to sleep for days in the same spot. He will go for a hole if given the chance though. He lived in our couch for a month, we thought he'd been stolen until I felt the couch move under me. He's been a lot of fun for us, and he gets along with our dogs just fine.

I have worked in a pet store for 3 years, and the corn snake by far intrigues me the most! I have two now, one regular and one albino, they share the same cage and are very entertaining! This is a great starter pet for snake lovers!

my rough green snake is a darling shelia. shes called shazza and loves to wrap around your arm and she has never bit any one.

I have had my rough green snake, Squeegie, for over a year, now. She was my first snake and has not proved very difficult to care for. I mainly feed her on store-bought crickets, and feed the crickets on Flukers orange cubes. She is wonderfully tempered annd has never attemped to bite anyone.
