Are you refering to that monstrousity Blocker?

Get a hatchling whatever in my own limited experience, except perhaps a Scrubby Might grow little on the mammoth side of things one day If you start off with a young snake, you'll both get used to each other by the time it becomes a big snake. The kids can grow up with it and know how to handle it properly.

I have one female Darwin about a year old and roughly 4ft, she was an absolute assassin when I first got her for about 4 months. I can trust my eldest two with her (8 & 5) without a problem of being bitten or risking having her mishandled. My 3 yr old daughter loves her and has never been bitten or looks likely to. It's claimed Darwins have a bad reputation :roll: I'm yet to see it

Snakes are what you make them to be I believe. Time and patience will pay off with just about whatever snake you get. Go for colour Perhaps just not one with a red belly and black body
