What snake is best for a beginner?

Answer 1

Something that isn't venomous probably

Answer 2

Probably either a corn snake or a milk snake. They're both relatively docile species. Whichever you choose - you absolutely must research the care and upkeep of snakes before you buy one ! It's no good getting a snake without having at least basic knowledge of the species, and how to take care of it !

Answer 3

The best snakes for beginners in my opinion are either Royal Pythons or Corn Snakes.

Corn Snakes - A more common choice for beginners as they are small, mainly harmless and easy to care for. They are also very cheap compared to other snakes although you have to leave them for a few days after feeding before handling.

Royal Pythons - My first snake was a royal python, not much longer than a corn snake but definately bigger, from my experience they are very friendly but can some times experience fussy eating habits.

Answer 4

The Corn Snake is an excellent snake to start with, easy to care for and very placid. Remember, all snakes live a LONG time!

Answer 5

i would recommend a corn snake because they don't grow too large and they do not have any venom. there are also lots of varieties and colors to choose from
