What is your favorite type of snake?

Do you like being ignorant?

Snakes are not pets.

They are more of a pet to me than a dog or cat. They don't shed, they are quiet, and are easier to take care of. They make good company when you are relaxing.

Let me guess ...............you like to kill things ,you think it's fun ,right?

I'm missing the part where it makes sense to have a constricting snake as a pet.

I love my snakes and they give me just as much as any other pet. It's just a choice. :)

I find snakes really creepy but I would never hurt one. However I don't understand why people keep restricting snakes as pets when they have been known to squeeze their owners a little too tightly.

You can either keep a restricting one as a pet or a venomous one. I wouldn't keep a venomous one as a pet. Although, the smaller constrictors are harmless. My python wouldn't be able to kill me even if it wanted to. She's way too small and she isn't going to be a huge snake. It helps by having locking cages and keeping them well fed. A lot of the accidents that happen are because people starve them. Bad stuff happens, when people abuse rules with larger snakes. If you are handling a large snake you should never be alone. I'd personally keep it in a locked cage in a room with a locked door. I'm not into super huge snakes.

I can't believe these people .......they make me sick ,ignorance MUST be bliss.

They like to talk about things they have no understanding of,or experiance with.If it isnt a cat or a dog ,it is "exotic" and dangerous. GRRRR!

The one comment near the top made me sick to my stomach.

He is probably a hunter, a drunk and a wife beater. I have gotten to spend time with some very awesome animals ,something that people like that will NEVER get to experiance. Their loss, all they can do is kill what they don't understand.

I definitely agree.

SNAKES DONT BOTHER ME....BUT I DONT HAVE FAVORITES

I had an Indigo snake when I was younger. They make excellent pets as they're very docile and seem to genuinely like people.

I've never heard of an Indigo snake. I'm assuming they are indigo in color...

Right. They're blue/black in color. I was trying to find a good pic and I kept seeing "rare" Indigo snake. I had mine back in the 70's and they were fairly easy to come by. I hope they haven't become endangered.

Are they venomous?

Nope. They're constrictors. And they eat rattlesnakes. They're beautiful snakes and like I said, very docile.

They remind me of what we call black snakes around where I live. They are actually black rat snakes, but they don't have shiny skin like the snake above. Still they have a slight resemblance.

That would be none, I don't care for any, but will leave them alone as long as they leave me alone.

I can respect that. :)

Me too.

Anacondas!

I like anacondas. Although, I've read that they are very hard to take care of as pets. They are extremely messy according to the research I've done on them.

Yes, you are probably right, they are not the best pets. I just think they are the best snake and I like the mystery surrounding their supposed maximum size!

And they would probably hog the sofa.

lol

Western Rattlesnake

I had a winter corn, His name was Elvis, after the coroner.

Cute! :) I almost bought a winter corn. I ended up getting a ghost striped corn.

:D well I think all corns are pretty cute, haha I'm jealous that you can have snakes though. My step Mom won't let me :P Eh but her house her rules right?

That's true.

I'm a big fan of the Black Mamba.

I've heard of them, but I don't believe I've seen a picture until today. What countries do they reside in?

They reside in Africa if I'm not mistaken :)
Black Mambas are famous for being the fastest land snakes in the world. And they're also one of the top ten most poisonous snakes in the world! They really are beautiful and interesting creatures...

That rings a bell! I pretty sure I remember this snake now. Thank you for the information. They are a very nice looking snake. I just don't think I'd want one as a pet.

Anytime!
... Agreed. :)

King Cobras.I think they are beautiful.
