I use tongs to feed, I have been hit, and my arm wrapped, by a 10 foot Burm, back in the day, and that gives one a whole new respect for these creatures, LOL! I have had cool colubrids. If I did I would probably go for a milk snake, or a grey banded king. But since my wife is just caving for one right now, it needs to be a python/boa. I think I am settled on a candino ball, from Bob Clark. I love retics, but they do require a different level of commitment and precaution. Thanks!

The BRB is an awesome, beautiful, and sweet snake as well. A lot of people think they are harder to take care of but I think it's pretty easy. Idk if you like them but I just thought it might be a good one for your son. My 8 year old niece holds mine.
