What is your ultimate snake?

They have special needs that must be met, but I think greensnakes are a wonderful and rewarding species. If I ever get a chance to buy some leucistic ones (which are said to be bright blue), I'll be all over them.

That's cool to know Chip. I hadn't heard of them being kept in captivity but I'm sure most things are possible with the right environment.
 
I want a purple sunfire retic, but not sure if I am ready for something so big. And the ship may be sailing soon.

April 1st, I believe. I'd think in a state like Ohio, though, you'd be able to find retic breeders in the future when you're ready to take that plunge.
 
The retic market here actually sucks pretty badly. I'd prefer a purple albino with high % dwarf/SD. If I do get one, I want to pick it out by hand to know that it has a gentle disposition.
 
Only one, thats harsh.
Probably an emerald tree boa.
I like the idea of having a venomous, I love eyelash vipers and rhino vipers.

I've caught several, kept them for a couple of years, and released. Gotten to hatch two clutches from gravid females that way too. The babies are really cool, they gape their mouths when frightened! Not all will take crickets, so hairless caterpillars are usually recommended. I found that little spiders in my garage were eagerly accepted, and they are plentiful most of the year. The last couple I kept in planted vivs (as would be set up for day geckos) and they did great, except being hard to find at times. If you can meet their needs, I think you'll find them very rewarding.
