firstly,
ive never kept snakes before therefore looking for info on housing one.
feeding,etc.
i know pretty much about temperature and housing though.
also,which snake would be better to start off with?
 
I would get a corn or king. Milk wouldn't be a bad choice but you find some that are picky feeders especially as babies...not a problem with kings especially.
 
will they take frogs?
like bullfrogs?
cause i cant get mice for feeding around my house.
so i probably wont be able to get mice every week.
plus theyre expensive.
 
problem is im most likely only able to get a corn.
how much do kings usually cost?
im not sure if im able to get them.
 
learn about breeding the mice and you pretty much set
 
you can order frozen mice online. you only need to feed once a week so you could order like a months worth in advance.....then reorder towards the end of the month for the next month. corns are def better then milks. milks tend to be pretty squirmy especially when young and have a tendancy to crap a lot. if you go kings, then go with like a grey banded kingsnake.
 
I love my baby corn and I don't feed live mice either. We get a reptile show here and there so when they come around I pick up a couple months worth of frozen mice and keep em in the garage freezer. I have pics on my home computer. I'll try to get one up over the weekend.
 
i think my mom wont like me breeding mice at home.
but i'll probably be ordering mice then.
about how much would a months worth of mice cost?
