Don't get me wrong, I love the lizards and other reptiles... but snakes will always hold my heart!! ❤

[dillon.]

I'm sorry but when Pikachu decided to take a pee on you I died 🤣🤣

[MrKilla]

Would've loved if this video was a top 10 instead of top 5. Like how you mentioned about the dumeril's boa being an in between for #3 and #2, I think more sizes would let a lot of other species get their deserved spotlight.

Love the video Adam, great work as usual, here my list of best snake from smallest to largest

5- king/milk snakes- widely available, tons of morphs, beautifully colors, reasonably sized, great feeding response, great personalities in general, inexpensive, very active

4-corn snakes: tied with ball pythons as the best pet snake, tons of morph, great size, good eaters, beautiful colors, good personalities, inexpensive, very active

3- bull snakes: good sized, great eaters, inexpensive(for the most part), morphs, very active

2: coastal carpet pythons, beautiful colors, good sized, good eaters, very active, can have a great personality

1: super dwarf retics- come all different sizes, great eaters, morphs, good personality, very active, great choice for anyone who wants a retic, but don’t want a 20ft snake

I just brought home my first baby boa, and I am so looking forward to watching her grow! I’m someone who LOVES the physical sensation of deep pressure like you’d get from weighted blanket, and after watching your video I am convinced I picked my heart species 💚 Great to meet Pikachu.

[Repti-verse]

I honestly think most of the Australian pythons are underrated. Especially things like Olive pythons!!! Can’t wait to get my pair this year lol.

I got a juvenile hognose snake as my first snake (I've had a 13 year old bearded dragon since he was 6 weeks old and a 12 year old Dalmatian tortoise since he was 5 years old) in April.

He made me nervous by not eating for the first 2+ weeks for a total of 3 weeks since the breeder fed him, but he's been a healthy eater and active since then. The only time he's passed up a pinky since then was when he'd just completed a shed.

[Subtletext]

Thanks Adam, as an Aussie I love this review. I've said it before - I want a hognose, but because I'm not going to move continents, the spotted python seems like a great alternative.

I think it’s funny we have the exact opposite experience between burms and retics. I had a burm growing up, and he was always ready to strike and could be hard to get out of his enclosure. He was always cool once you got him out. But you had to use a hook to calm him down. My retic always double checks before he strikes. He’s never struck at me, and he’s a breeze to just grab and pull out any time. Never hisses or gets defensive. Always very active and curious. I would still get another burm in the future though. They are chill most of the time

[levic]

As someone who has both retics and a burm, I love my retics. I call her my "broken" girl as a joke while her real name is Magne. She's about 5yrs old, had her from a week old. She has a zero food response (I tap tweezers for all them to know that's when food is), I would open her enclosure, touch her, she would get in my face to give off a little chuff and tickle my ear with her tongue. She is the definition of a gentle giant and even takes prey slowly...a little too slowly lol.

Something I think you should have included is the rough/smooth green snakes! They are native to the Americas and are super easy to feed once you get them the bugs they need. I've wanted one for a long time but my budget for my own food leaves me hungry at the end of the day, so I can't afford any pets rn x.x

[ingeniouspixie]

Spotted pythons! Theyre definitely beautiful and it's interesting you say theyre easy to keep.
You should do for Antaresia Pythons what Fadi did for MHDs. 😁

[zebrababy]

How do I talk my husband into letting us keep a snake? 😂😂

[verpine]

The only choice I'd alter is I would take super dwarf retics over BCIs/BCCs. Anything larger like Burmese pythons or mainland retics are beautiful but simply too large for me to properly care for, mainly because of available space.

[SunnieMaddy]

I have a ball Python, and he is very mellow he is always in his hide and will occasionally stick his head out lol, but he is so mellow I can teach young kids about them using him for them to feel, hold, or watch and I got a kid who was terrified of all other animals to hold him and I felt so proud of the girl and happy I have my boy to show her snakes aren't bad she is scared of my dog and my cat still but thats okay one step at a time.

[Guuzaka]

Since you mentioned it, perhaps you could do a video on Australian pythons: carpet pythons, black-headed pythons, amethyst pythons, white-lipped pythons, olive pythons, water pythons, and so forth. 🌏🐍

[debwaekens]

Our firat snake was a corn. Almost been a year with him. He's been a great addition to our family. I'm hoping to get a hognose next!

[AlexVR]

Great video, once again. My wife and I are novices in snake ownership. We have 4 BP, and have been learning a lot in the last two years. Being at a place where we feel very comfortable with our abilities, we are looking at our first truly large snake. BP has been on our short list for a little bit. We both agree that this video gave the last little push in our decision making process. Thank you!

[napoleonmdusa]

Excellent video--years ago, I had Burmese and Ball pythons along with a breeding pair of Corn snakes (Red Rat snakes). I always enjoyed having them and educating people about snakes.

[caseysilva]

Being someone that has always been afraid of snakes, it surprises me that I would own one. I went to the reptile store one day and said is that a hognose snake and he just put him in my hands. I love my little guy.
