Im thinking about getting a corn snake and i know that Batista on here has a few, actually a lot, of snakes. I'm just wondering if any Wf'fers have any tips for me about snakes, any past experiences or stories, I need all the help i can get.
Thanks for your time,
Fiddy

It'll end up escaping and killing everyone you hold close to your heart.
Enjoy.

I thought this topic was about when you take a poo and there is little pieces of corn in it :/
Anywaysss, I would steer clear if you don't have much experience with snakes.

Snakes are a waste of money, ooh they can slither around, that isn't fun at all. Hobbies are hobbies. One might say watching horror movies are a waste of time, but different strokes for different folks right? Anyway, a corn snake is a pretty good beginner snake, it won't get too big and isn't too hard to handle. Your best bet is finding a good pet store near you and talk to them about it. I'd avoid any big chain stores like pets mart and petco, and stick with the smaller ones.

Waste of money [clap,clap,clapclapclap.] Coming from a person who collects wrestling toys......riiiight. Anywho, Snakes arent for me. Im more of a dog person, simply because snakes creep me out. But what ever floats your boat I suppose.

But what ever floats your boat I suppose. Oh right, snakes are so cool. Lets spend $500 on something to sit in a $200 glass tank that takes up space. WANT TO KNOW THE FUNNEST PART? You get to watch the poor thing slither around in a little glass tank. Oh don't forget the food that runs about $30. Atleast figures can actually be worth something unlike a poor creature trapped in a cage.

I like how a snake is worthless because it's in a tank unlike wrestling toys. I love that you compared a toy to a living thing in price value, that's cute.

Corn snakes are alright pets. They get rather big, some can get up to 6 feet, normally they stay around 4-5 feet, but ive seen a few that are 6. They dont get to fat, normally around the width of a quater. They can get a bit of an attitude, mine is fussy when you go to get him out but after hes out of the cage he calms down. Id recomend a ball python for a starting out snake, avoid buying them from a pet store. You will be sold something they dont know **** about. Your best bet on getting a good snake would be going to a reptile show or finding a reliable store online, i know plenty of them, pm me if you wish, and let me know what exactly you are looking for, there are many different morphs of corn snakes, and most are rather cheap, under 100 bucks.
As far as snakes that are expensive, most of the people that buy the ones that are 400+ bucks, generally use them for breeding. People always bitch about snakes, most snakes are harmless, they dont get huge like myths say, the largest snake was 33 feet, wasnt an anaconda either, was a reticulated python. There has been no proof that an anaconda has been up to 50+ feet like myths and movies claim. Snakes are probably one of the best investments, after you dish out the 400 or so bucks for one morph, you breed them then get around 4-12 eggs that are either of the same morph or het for the morph which hets still can go for a nice amount of money.
