that taiwan snake looks cool. is it possible that either of the snakes could eat the other? :PZumaJones07Possible, yes. Likely, no. Neither are snake eaters, but strictly speaking size, mine is about twice the size of her's and mine also grows to about twices the size of her's. Her's grows to 3-5 feet and mine will grow 6-9 feet.
I don't currently, but in the past I used to keep snakes fairly regularly usually fairly common easy to catch breeds like King Snakes, Gopher Snakes, Garter Snakes, & the occasional Southern Pacific Rattlesnake. I had a Burmese Python for a number of years, but I eventually gave him to a friend when I moved as I never really warmed up to him as in my experience snakes raised in captivity tend to be less friendly and childishly finicky...loved the way he snored though.

I own two snakes, a California kingsnake and a corn snake. The corn snake I just got a little over a month ago, hes been really shy the first two weeks, now hes always watching and explores around his enclosure. The Kingsnake Ive had over 16 years, since I was a freshmen in high school. He is very tame, very use to being handled, to my motions and such. The kingsnake will very often stay on my lap without requiring much handling and sometimes will sleep on my lap while Im watching a movie or playing game.
My dad had a red tail boa when I was young. Taking care of it looked to be a major pain in the ass, so I never was interested in having a snake of my own. Plus they're not very affectionate like cats or dogs are.
I have a size limit. I have no interest in owning any snake that can grow to over ten feet long. Big snakes require big food items like rabbits or chickens as well as require a lot of space. I haven't owned a snake in over ten years, but plan on getting back into breeding them. I plan on focusing on Asian rat snakes and tree Boas.My dad had a red tail boa when I was young.

[QUOTE="Pittfan666"]Do trouser snakes count?SteverXIIIWhats a trouser snake?
well it literally lives underneath your trousers, it becomes larger when stimulated as well. Perhaps to show that it is ready to mate.
That is a Kenyan Sand Boa. Here is a pic I took of what we caught.I have an african sand boa, the dark-orange type which if I have understood it correctly is pretty rare.
He looks pretty much like this:

The fear of being bitten by a snake is a lot worse than the actual bite (unless of course it is a venomous snake bite).I would consider having a pet snake if I didn't live at home and also the fact that I wouldn't want it to bite me or something.

I like snakes but wouldn't want one for a pet. Too much hassle.katana_duoLOL then you better stay away from pets like dogs and cats if you think snakes are a hassle to care for.

You have no clue what you are talking about when it comes to snakes, but felt the need to comment anyways. Sorry but outside of owning a tarantula, you aren't going to find a more hassle free pet than a snake. I own two cats and 20 snakes would be easier to care for than just 1 cat or dog.

I have an Albino corn snake too.
She started out that smal, but is now between 1 & 1 1/2 yards long
My roommate has a ball python, they are pretty cool but my roommate is one lazy person and never takes care of it.I am planning on buying a ball python as soon as I get my own place.

They are pretty but live too long for me to want to take care of one. Don't corn snakes bite?DaBrainzWhen you as if they bite, do you mean are they aggressive? All snakes can bite. Corn snakes are a pretty docile snake. They make great snakes for beginners because of how easy they are to care for and because of how docile they are.
