beginner question

[jay76]

Hi,

I'm hoping to get my first snake at the St Jacobs show this weekend, and was going to make it a cornsnake (or maybe a king - depends on what I find that mesmerizes me ) but I was hoping to ask a few questions first.

What's a good size of tank? A baby might do better in a smaller one, but as an adult what would I be looking at? A 10 or a 20?

Also, how long do they take to grow to adult size? Not as fast a beardie, I hope!

Just one more (grin) - what the heck is a 'creamsicle'?? it's been a while since I was looking at getting a snake, and this morph seems to have appeared while I wasn't looking

Thanks!

Jay
