I am looking for suggestions on a first snake. I am looking for a common snake (not hard to find), I want him to be bigger (Average-Normal size of 6-7 feet long), "meaty", docile, hearty eater and last but not least I (my wife) wants him/her to have nice coloration and patterns.
I've looked at (for starters) corn snake, king snake, ball python, boa's, - pretty much all the snakes that are common with "first snake / starter snake typed into a search engine"
The closest i've been able to come up with, with tons of research in the last few days, is a male red tail boa.
If you have any suggestions that may be closer to what I want than this please let me know - Thanks in advance
