I've been really looking into getting a snake, preferably some kind of boa, but I wont be able to do something big. Also, I've never owned any kind of bigger snake. As a kid, I periodically captured wild grass snakes. None of them ever died on me, but my mom would make me let them go after a few months. I would like something that doesn't usually get over 2 1/2 feet. So what would you suggest for me?
