Best snake for my son

[Danny-P]

Hi all, My youngest son has a Spotted python now my eldest son wants a snake but would like a python that grows a little bigger. He would like a Jungle python but I heard they can be more aggressive than other carpets. What would be a good snake for him. He is 10.

Murray Darling, Bredli, Woma, Albino Darwin, Rough Scaled Python, to name a few, alot to to choose from but still all comes down to individual personalities

definitely an adult scrubby would be the way to go

Nothing wrong with a coastal carpet. Was my first snake

I'd get him what he wants. I wouldn't let species type be a deterrent. It comes down the individual snake you get.

Nothing wrong with jungle pythons. When you are looking to purchase one just look for a calm one. No point in getting him a species that he doesn't fully want to own. If you are really worried about a hatchie being bitey just look for an older one that is already used to handling and doesn't bite. Simple.

Thanks all, good feedback. He still wants a Jungle so that's what he will get. Let the searching begin

Ohh gosh, a young jungle bite hurts less than stepping on a piece of lego. Get the kid something he things looks amazing and let him handle the bazeezuz out of it. My jungle was a chainsaw and now she's a complete pussycat, handle it from a young age and it gets the bite out of them.

He will enjoy more the one he wants/ likes the look of.
