Question What should I get?

I know this is a common thread, but I do have some specifics. At some point in the next year, I want to get my second snake. I currently have a beautiful DH Kahl Albino Stripe BCI boy and love him to little bits. (Poor thing. )

Anyway, I want something with the cool temperment of the BCI that stays a bit smaller. I'm 5'0, 100lbs soaking wet, so one 6' snake is probably enough for me. I've looked at kings, milks, been told not to look at gophers...I was considering a Hogg Island too, but it may be fun to branch out to some other species.

Any recommendations?

Sir, I admire your...um...fortitude. If I was inebriated enough and actually had a picture, I might. However, I am niether of those things. So you, Gus, should start thinking of species I can get free from you. We'll trade.

What ever you decide I hope you will consider adopting a snake in need of a home from a true rescue shelter.

Hey, as long as you hold up your end of the deal.

There are a great many things one should take offense to in life...sharing a joke with a friend is not one of them. No worries here, you'll have to try a lot harder than that!

Have a great night!

- Jess
