A - Normally around the 3 years old or 70cm+ mark. Sometimes younger if you're lucky.

B - You can own two, but they are very fussy, difficult snakes to keep for a beginner. They can get to 6 feet, but normally around the 3-4 foot mark.

They're one of the worst handling snakes out there. Very nervous most of the time.

You'll find the odd one who will constantly eat mice, but they require a lot of buggering around normally.

ok cool thanks, i like the look of that sort of snake (like the body) are there any other types that are like that and you can get on a rec Licence, and would be good if they are atlest ok handles and not poisenous if thats possible.
