I am searching for an affordable, easy to care for snake See details for specifications Please Help2007-11-24 2:00:49

I have looked into corn snakes, yet they eat rodents, which my mother cannot put up with. It would be nice to have a snake which eats crickets or other small insects, or even a herbivorous reptile (if they exist). I have little to no fear of snakes, would like a snake that is not costly or difficult to care for (relative to other snakes). I would like a sizeable one, but not too big, like the size of a corn snake. Can a corn snake live off of crickets? I hope it would enjoy being handled, because I would want to handle it frequently. Help! I don't know much, but I know enough. Could someone help me with a breed that would suit me?

How about a garter snake? My kids had one for years.

We caught it in our garden. It needed a pan with water and a cage with a secure top.

We fed it bullfrog tadpoles that we scooped out of ponds with a long handle net. Worms and crickets are probably good too.

Go 2 the pet store pick a snake and this is what snake you get a corn snake or a garden snake if you want somethin more dangerous keep it in a cage and feed it mice!

A carpet snake makes a good pet. They are happy to be handled as long as it is with care and they are not harmful.

there are very cool ones but ,like with snakes, you have to have right heat and more or they'll die.
