What is a good starter snake?

Question

I really don't want anything that is going to grow to be six feet long. I just want something smaller. Any suggestions? I'm really not into garter snakes though.

Answer 1

Ball Python, great snakes and only 4-5 feet long.

Answer 2

id go with a corn snke i hear they make pretty good pets. and whats wrong with garter snakes i had three of them b/c one got hit by a lawn mower and the other two got attacked  by my aunts cats.

Answer 3

sand boa, rubber boa, rosy boa

Answer 4

Garter snake, Corn Snake, King Snake, Water Snake. They are all five feet and under.

Answer 5

king snakes are not a good choice, they are very aggressive. corn snakes and ball pythons are good. personally, i like ball pythons better. when babies, corn snakes are way too skinny and squirmy for me. ball python females get to a max of 5 feet. although six feet has been recorded. heres 2 sites that are very respectable and correct.
