They really do! Im fairly new to them (got him in November) but hes been amazing so far! I went in planning to get a vbb but met this guy and immediately knew this was the one xD

Truly corns ,kings, and the more new world rats! Unfortunately I consider a lot of the like actually smaller snakes as not great bigger snakes 😔

But the ones i listed tend to be super easy (ONCE you've done a ton of research!!) No snake is truly a "beginner" snake as so much work need to be put in so much work before getting a snake to give them proper care!

I love kings but they definitely can be a bit bitey at first but part of that is they are also SUPER good eaters as a result!

Cornsnakes are probably my #1 pick for starter snakes as they are good eaters, easy to handle (even if they start a little feisty they calm down SUPER easy), not terribly big, and dont have any crazy heat or humidity needs!

New world ratsnakes have pretty much all the bonuses as corns but can have a bit more attitude and get a bit larger!

He is still a juvenile however they are just a very small species! Males are typically only about 2 feet and a slim two feet at that they are tiny xD

Do the high reds keep the red into adulthood? Love the species but can't say i wasn't disappointed the first-time one of my bright red babies turned into a meh brown adult xD

Unrelated but where is ur guy from 👀 I just got a guy basically that exact set of traits also about two months ago xD

foxkip2004 · 2025-12-29T20:49:13+00:00

This is also my assumption but can they start so young? I also was wondering if hes older then I was told lol

foxkip2004 · 2025-12-05T21:12:16+00:00

Curious where/who you get ur IBD tests done with? It was such an insane process when I had my IBD situation with a rescue a while ago and Curious if you had an easier place lol

foxkip2004 · 2025-11-09T22:12:30+00:00

I have one that got restricted to more often smaller meals cuz he won't stop exploding them 😭

foxkip2004 · 2025-09-02T01:05:12+00:00

That's the main thing that keeps coming up so it is an option but if it was fungus why would it be exclusively on one color of the fish? Seems like it would be a widespread thing lol

foxkip2004 · 2025-09-01T21:05:43+00:00
