Conversion of a boa lover...

Well done!
Yeah, as pretty as the larger snakes are, they can't. Compare to the power per pound you get with garters. Lots of color, sociable active personalities, and as much attitude and ferocity toward their prey as any carnivore.
I love my little 'worm dragons '.

I was going to get myself a bigger snake, like a ball python or something in a morph that I liked just to have a nice "looker" sort of snake. One that doesn't need a whole lot of attention given, but is nice to look at.

I almost bought a corn snake last year. My plan was to have more than one species so that if I ever got asked to do a presentation or something, I wouldn't just have garters. But I was too lazy to build the separate enclosure, and too cheap to pay the $40 for it. It was a cool looking snake, though.

There always seem to be corn snakes and boas looking for new homes on craigslist. If I just *had* to get one (and had space for a larger snake, as if...) I'd look there or with my local reptile rescue league. Way too many unwanted corns and constrictors.
