Hatchling, yearling, adult - which one?

It's definitely fun to get a baby, but for a first snake, a yearling is a great choice. It will still be fairly small so you can watch it grow, but it will already be an established eater and it should be a lot easier to handle than a flighty baby.

+3 on the yearling or older. As hypnoctopus mentioned, will be or should be an established feeder which will make things much easier and less stress for you. Depending on where you are in FL, you might be close to some upcoming herp shows. That would be an excellent opportunity to both find some yearlings and be able to interact with any you find.
Thanks all! I'll be getting a yearling then, it sounds like the best of both worlds re still being able to see it grow, but it already being a good eater and hopefully pretty docile.
I'm not quite ready to get a snake yet, just trying to figure out everything beforehand. I'm hoping when the time comes (maybe later this fall) I'll be able to find a yearling for sale on this forum or somewhere...I just want to make sure I buy from a reputable source and get a healthy, friendly snake.

It's definitely a good idea to check out any potential sellers on the BOI over at faunaclassifieds.com. And of course it's also a good idea to read up on corn snake care on this forum.
