Hey Ya, any ideas on a smaller snake, 3ish feet that is aboreal?
And not too crazy with biting? LOL I am not afraid of my Balls or Boas but I don't trust the lil guys.
I am looking for a display style snake so not too easily stressed would be good too. LOL I don't ask for much do I?
Thanks, Shawn

I'm not positive but I think generally all aboreal snakes are pretty fiesty. It all depends on the individual too. A lot can be tamed down with handling though.

Hmm okay thanks, I guess I will take my chances with getting bit.

How about a male amazon, agressive yes, but very rewarding :)

IJ's are relitively small and can be "tamed" if you get a baby. Again its all luck of the draw, but im sure it can easily be done with weekly handling.

Even think about a Rough Green Snake? If I'm not mistaken they stay around three or four feet. They're pretty too.

Rough green snakes are weirdo bug eaters though, and most often wild caught and full of parasites. Not fun in my opinion.
