Where did you get yours from Gaz? I was looking at 888 reptiles.

You are somewhat limited to what is available to you but Checkereds (T.marcianus) are a sweet snake.

Here in the states I highly recommend a t.ordinoides. They are a smaller snake and the sweetest things ever! Super cuddly and great personality. Over there though I'm not sure what is available but checkered are super sweet also!

I second that sentiment but don't think they are available.
Too bad, wonderful snakes and much overlooked.

I'm with Kat, but I don't think they've been over to the UK. I bet if you find a radix (plains garter snake) Steve would say that those are the best to get!

I got me marcianus from 888reptiles.Good site there and they look after their animals and know what they are doing.
