Best snake??

[CDN_Blood]

I'm really surprised how many people are recommending large things as first snakes. That usually ends in some partially grown animal looking for a new home in very little time. My suggestion would be to start with something that doesn't get large.

If that goes well for you and you feel like you can handle something larger after a couple of years, then consider something larger, but starting with something that gets large usually ends poorly because new keepers simply aren't usually prepared for such responsibility - it can be a little overwhelming, so best to start small and nail down those keeping practices before moving to something more demanding.

Honestly, people...c'mon, lol.
