I'm thinking about getting a pet snake and I'm trying to do some research first. Do you know much about snakes?
I know a little bit about them, yeah! Their skulls have a huge number of joints that allow them to open their mouths wide to eat their food
Really? I guess that's how they eat such big animals! Do you know which kind of snake is best as a pet?
Yeah definitely! I would say a corn snake. Pretty narrow body, small, cute, and a nice pretty orange color.
Interesting! I've never heard of a corn snake! Do you know what they eat?
Well you want small prey, because they like to constrict. Small mice, lizards, the occasional frog, all good choices!
Great thanks! What else should I know about snakes before I choose one as a pet?
You will be known as "that snake person," so you better be prepared to answer the same questions every single time you bring them up, lol.
Well, I guess that's better than a crazy cat lady! Ha! What type of habitat would I need for my snake?
Aw, I'm sure you're not romance-challenged like that! My advice would be to get an appropriately sized terrarium. Sand, rocks, etc.
