hey all, i've been thinking about adding another beauty to my collection and wanted your opinion on a placid/easy handling species that is going to grow to a decent size?

Diamonds.... ours is the best snake ever with personality to match her size
Keeping Diamonds in Cairns is like keeping GTPs in Melbourne (without heating). Not a very good advice gosia, have you ever been to Cairns in the height of the summer?

Hey! What about a BHP?! They're supposed to be very placid snakes (I saw a vid earlier where a guy goes out and just grabs a wild one to show how they live in the wild and it was just like, "Excuse me... Uh... Excuse me, could you put me down please? No? *sigh* Fine..."
Also, every zoo I've been to in Australia has had an interactive photo thing with a snake and it's always been a black head (gotta be a reason for that, especially considering their size vs size of 5yo kids having pics taken)
They're much larger than roughies (though I reckon that'll be what I get after I get my black head) and have a much stockier build. They're entirely distinctive, and I reckon one of the most beautiful snakes in Oz.
Also they can be found naturally in FNQ so you won't have the same issues you would with a diamond :lol:
Isn't that all associated with having a large snake though? OP asked for a snake that grew large, and the BHPs have that
I can understand that. I only saw how much jumbo rats cost AFTER I put a down payment... down. I'm lucky that we have a local exporter here and they have mice and rats for MUCH less than the pet stores.
Just curious, how often did you feed your black heads?
