If you are seriously thinking about getting your first snake here are a few things to take into consideration before you buy.........

1. Why do I want a snake?

2. What type of snake should I buy?

3. How big will it get?

4. What size of vivarium will it need?

5. What does it eat?

6. How long will it live?

7. Who is going to look after it when I go on holiday?

8. Where is my nearest reptile vet?

9. Where am I going to buy the snake from?

10. Hygiene.

These are the basic things that you should be thinking about before buying a snake. When I get time I will be linking each question to a page which will go into more detail about each subject and explain why they are important.

Bye for now,
