Newbie question: can i own a snake successfully if i travel foe work all the time?

Well, dang.
Id worried that i would get thoughtful and well worded answers on exactly how this would be a bad idea and a massive inconvenience.

thank you all for your thoughts on this. it is quite clear that my working schedule simply does not even come close to permitting good care for a snake.

On that bombshell, I think i'll go and rebuild my slug terrarium. Maybe sometime in the future should my circumstances change I could join this hobby. Until then...

I am sure you will be able to someday, but the health of the snake should come first, so if you are unable to provide for the snake it could become unhealthy. Slugs on the other hand, are super cool, so good luck with that.
