Re: A Black Snake
don't get me wrong..i'm NOT cutting anyone down...seriously...I set budgets for animals too...but I know I can support them before I do, is all...I breed mice and rats...so food supply is not a problem for me...right now its available space...3 story home, but temp regulating and not spacing them too far apart to take care of is the issue for me...if it's a money issue with someone I worry about the animals suffering...

Re: A Black Snake
Pretty sure the only snakes you can get for $20 is certain garters and corns.

Re: A Black Snake
I'm thinking of maybe getting either a Red Tail Green Rat or an Eastern Cal King when I save some bucks.

Re: A Black Snake
You are pretty new to snakes right? I would stay away from Red tail green rats for now. Not a beginner species.

If there was a hobby breeder near you, they'd probably sell you their normals for 20-30 dollars.

I would be cautious with this choice. I don't know your experience with snakes but if you want one of these guys...you gotta be pretty experienced.
