It depends which species. Initial set up - around £250 including the snake. Monthly upkeep - £20-40 depending on the amount of food and electricity needed to maintain the snake. Preparation and knowledge on the individual species - priceless !

∙ 14y agosnakes are really quite efficient and easy maintenance as pets... they require warmth and water always available... but they dont need food very often at all... being that they are cold blooded and have small brains, they dont burn up calories like we do... i typically feed my snakes once a week or every other week... one rodent per snake of adequate size for the size of the snake... i guess i probably spend about ten bucks a month on any one of my snakes... and i dont have to worry if i want to go out of town or on vacation... they wont starve...

The cost of feeding a pet snake mice will depend on the size of the snake, and also the prices at a local pet store. Many pet stores have "feeder mice" that are relatively cheap, and bred for feeding snakes and other carnivorous reptiles. These mice can usually be purchased for less than $3 apiece, and many snakes that eat them will only need to eat once a week. However if a snake is larger, rats may be the more economical way to go, and many rats cost around $5 apiece.
