So you're not getting deleted after all ? I'm grateful for seeing your posts. You truly are an educator and interesting to boot!

@alexcrowder1673 Год назад

I highly encourage you to work with a captive bred african rock python. They are far more rewarding than either burmese pythons or reticulated pythons. I keep many of each, and african rock pythons are by FAR the most rewarding. They are even smarter than retics. Its mindboggling how smart they are for a snake. Their reputation for being aggressive is nonsense. Also, if you comment on the new brunswich case, PLEASE read the autopsy. That african rock python did NOT constrict either of the Barthe boys. The news channels simply made their reports before the autopsy was release. Because of this there is a ton of misinformation regarding that case. The official cause of death was the roof collapsing on them. Absolutely no bite marks OR signs of constriction were present on either body. Its soooo sad that laws were passed against them just because people jumped the gun..... because they really are the most amazing giant snake that money can buy, bar none!

Would've loved if this video was a top 10 instead of top 5. Like how you mentioned about the dumeril's boa being an in between for #3 and #2, I think more sizes would let a lot of other species get their deserved spotlight.

@reggie8370 11 месяцев назад

I was thinking top 12 since it’s an integer that’s divisible by 2,3,4,6. So at 12/2 you can choose from medium to smallest snakes. 5/2 is 2.5 and there’s no fractional choices so 12 makes sense

@alexcrowder1673 22 дня назад

@@reggie8370The only issue is that there arent many options for the large snake catagory. Id estimate that about 90% of people who have a snake over 10ft are keeping either a reticulated python or a burmese python. Some people keep green anaconda, or african rock pythons, or a few other large species, but not very many at all.

Thanks Adam, as an Aussie I love this review. I've said it before - I want a hognose, but because I'm not going to move continents, the spotted python seems like a great alternative.

@thebenior Год назад

I got a juvenile hognose snake as my first snake (I've had a 13 year old bearded dragon since he was 6 weeks old and a 12 year old Dalmatian tortoise since he was 5 years old) in April. He made me nervous by not eating for the first 2+ weeks for a total of 3 weeks since the breeder fed him, but he's been a healthy eater and active since then. The only time he's passed up a pinky since then was when he'd just completed a shed.

@Guuzaka Год назад

Since you mentioned it, perhaps you could do a video on Australian pythons: carpet pythons, black-headed pythons, amethyst pythons, white-lipped pythons, olive pythons, water pythons, and so forth. 🌏🐍

Something I think you should have included is the rough/smooth green snakes! They are native to the Americas and are super easy to feed once you get them the bugs they need.

Im a teacher and i cant wait to move my yearling ball python to my classroom this year. Shes still small enough to not be as intimidating to my students but has been handled enough that im comfortable having her with my students. She can be such a great learning tool and can be good for my students to take responsibility for some of her care. Ball pythons are the best snakes in my opinion closely followed by african house snakes (which i have both). Great list. Keep them coming.

@levic3276 Год назад

As someone who has both retics and a burm, I love my retics. I call her my "broken" girl as a joke while her real name is Magne. She's about 5yrs old, had her from a week old. She has a zero food response (I tap tweezers for all them to know that's when food is), I would open her enclosure, touch her, she would get in my face to give off a little chuff and tickle my ear with her tongue. She is the definition of a gentle giant and even takes prey slowly...a little too slowly lol.

@Racheous Год назад

I have a male ball python (3 years now) he has not gone off feed, there were 2x when he wasn’t really interested in food but for the most part I haven’t had issues. Although they are notoriously known for going off feed/feeding issues I do not think that alone should deter anyone from getting one. There’s always chance your snake won’t have any issues at all. He also is such a sweet heart and never an issue handling even with strangers.

Great video Adam! I have to do my obligatory shoutout to kingsnakes as FANTASTIC pets, I've had 4 (2 I purchased and 2 rehabs) (right now I have a caliking and a MBK) and they're just amazing. They're very much like retics in a smaller package. They seem to be a little more intelligent than your average snake, they are extremely food motivated, they will follow your movement almost like a jumping spider or praying mantis, they are very active and interactive and you will *never* have one refuse food unless it's in shed, and I've even had my girls eat while they're in blue ;p Always need to comment and throw kingsnaks out there as an option whenever there's a "best snakes" video! Keep up the awesome work!

@suran396 11 месяцев назад

I just got my 1st MBK. He's 3 months old and just awesome. A bit flighty still, but only when picking him up. Once he's in your hands, he explores and moves around a lot, but doesn't appear stressed about it. We take him out no more than once a day (and not at all right after his, so far, 1st and only meal with us.) Can I ask a few questions? What weight should I be looking for.....that is, how can I ensure that I am not overfeeding or underfeeding? Also, since he's black all over, how do I recognize when it's preparing to shed so we can leave him alone then, too. Finally, what is the average time for a 3 month old to go from meal to a poop and should we wait for the poop before the next meal?

@PrincessSuicune 11 месяцев назад

@@suran396 Hey! Not sure if you were asking me or Adam but I can give a little input here (definitely not an expert though!) Congratulations on your little friend! Here's a great video from Snake Discovery about snake weight ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-sspqmKjeJlE.html I don't weigh mine since at this point I kinda have a feel for it but I typically feed every week! In regards to the shedding, they will definitely dull out quite a bit and turn from the sleek glossy black colour to more of a muted dark grey. The eyes will turn an almost blue colour as well! You will start to recognise it after a few sheds :) Mine usually go to the bathroom between like 1 and 3 days after eating, but I wouldn't worry about it too much. I usually give them a day or two after feeding before I handle them (sometimes they will poop on me but that's just part of snake keeping lol!) Sounds like you're doing a great job so far!

I've been keeping burms and retics for 15 years. It does not take a long time to get retics out of feed mode. They learn hook training so fast. Burms, it takes a while. Dwarf retics are a lot more psycho though lol

@alexcrowder1673 Год назад

I've never had dwarf retics, so i cant comment on them, but I keep multiple burms and retics and I agree that retics learn hook training crazy fast compared to burms. I gotta say though, the afrock ive been raising up is even smarter than any retic ive ever owned. I ended up with an oddball "giant" afrock too. She's not even from big bloodlines, but she was a big hatchling and has always stayed bigger than average. Shes actually far larger than any of my 2022 burms or retics, despite being a few months younger than any of them and having a modest feeding schedule. Shes an august 2022 baby and damn near 8ft already. Shes got some huge genes for an afrock. I HIGHLY reccomend you look into afrocks if you enjoy keeping burms and retics. Afrocks are (ussually) slightly smaller than mainland burms or retics, but larger than superdwarf retics or dwarf burms. I just ended up getting an oddly large afrock by chance. I know a guy with a 34 year old male afrock thats under 10ft long. Most breeding females i see are around 12ft. The largest ive seen was like 18ft, BUT that was from European bloodlines. American bloodlines ussually stay even smaller. Unfortunately Americans have no way of importing other bloodlines. Thats why i plan to breed the female that i have. Im going to purchase an unrelated male in a couple years. I just have no real need to get a male quite yet. The males can be younger, and I already have enough snakes to feed for rightnow lol. Oh and btw, their reputation for being aggressive/defensive is BS. They just behave in their own unique way, but you get used to it. Their strike range is INSANE though, its like a giant blood python. So IF they do get mad, be sure give them even more distance than you would other large pythons. The amount of slack in their neck is NOT how far they will strike. They hyperextend like crazy and sometimes even "hop" forward.

@drepop803 Год назад

@alexcrowder1673 a lot of interesting info you shared. Appreciate it. Anacondas have an interesting strike as well. They can bite sideways. A baby green bit me just like that at an expo. I was confused on how she tagged me. Then I learned they can bite that way. Someone said something similar about afrocks striking skills. I need to see that. How do you mean afrocks seem more intelligent than retics? Green anaconda owners say that they show intelligence as well. They get curious about objects the way cobras do.

I had her for a many years and miss her terribly. I love my wonderful Boas. My older ones are quite large now and very strong. I feed my young snakes rats once a week and the big older snakes eat every 2 weeks. I also have two male Burmese Pythons. One is a gentle giant, the younger one was very defensive and frightened, but I am teaching him he can trust me. He is much better than when I bought him, the breeder said he could never be handled, but now he can. It will take time working with him to earn his trust. I am very petite and 73 years old. I plan to live a long time to give my snakes a good home. I am almost sold on the cute Hognose snake. They are adorable!

i have two ball pythons, one is an adult around 6 years old and my little banana guy is approaching 2 and a half. i know given the age difference there will be some personality differences as well. it’s pretty uncommon for my little guy to come out and do anything but curl up on my lap or my shoulders, but my adult is always cruising. definitely not a snake i sit down to watch a movie with and i consider myself lucky to have both types of personalities.

Jungle Carpet Python are my favorite due to attitude, coloration, and size

Absolutely amazing snakes

I have most of the snakes on this list except for a Burmese Python, and my favorites are quickly becoming my pair of Stimsons Pythons I got last year. Such cool snakes and they are ferocious eaters and beautiful. One snake I think would have been a cool add to the list would be Carpet Pythons. Once tamed they make great pets, mine is awesome and way easier to handle than Richard my BCI, you can use your imagination as to why I named him Richard, he is a jerk, lol.

@machinegunn15 11 месяцев назад

can we get a video on scrub pythons eventually? sure they are massive and have a very good feeding response but would love to hear about them

@barbellboa8421 Год назад

The dog comparison really called m out. Ive got a pittie and a blood python, with future plans for an Anaconda 😂 But i gotta say. I have to amplify your choice of Boas. I feel like BI, BC, exc are the perfect cross section of impressive, easy to handle, fun to handle, and not that hard to care for ❤

I have 6 types of snakes... Hognoses, spotted pythons, ball pythons, tarahumara Mountain boas, hog island boas, and a hypo green burm. So I'd have to agree with your list here.

@davec1004 11 месяцев назад

Colombian Red Tailed Boa hold a special place in my heart I would chose them over Ball Python. A little heavier bodied but my male is just about 5 1/2feet.

@andreahallas5196 Год назад

I have one hognose and five ball pythons. I love both species so much, and each for different reasons.

I understand what you went thru with Pikachu and the shirt. I bought a lesser pastel enchi at an expo last year, and on the way home its cloaca exploded on my shirt in a van with the heater running. Not good.....

Yes truth my first snake was a coloumbian rainbow boa hardly ate but grew really long and fat. He was on live mice an hamster or 3 znd one rabbit. At rabbit he was 9 1/2 ft . Slept in my bed, went in his bag when he wanted to go outside. And always always craweled in my pants to hide when i was going out. Never gave a problem really, just one time my roommate opened the tank amd he bit her breast. And he got away and shit on my curtains. But came bake when i was in the room calling him. Edit... i love snakes. Whis he was still around. He was like a dog. One call and he was there. When he got larger to feed on rabbits i fed him out of normal enclousure

I have two scaly babies a leopard gecko and a BP. I got the leo first and he's great but if I could only have one reptile it would definitely be a snake ❤️

Scrubs and olives are great for those who like retics without the size,although dwarf retics are unbeatable

@Floki_Floxen 8 месяцев назад

In Germany Hognoses Are very expensive.. the normal Price is round about 390-800€ .. (in $ it is 417- 857$ round about) ..

@kassandrayoung3405 Год назад

Hey Adam, do you have any opinions on Green Anacondas? Idk if I've seen you talk about them or not, ik theres a few guys on here that keep them, and they're gorgeous! I mean I know they're technically a type of boa, but their size alone puts them up there w retics and burms imo!!

The best pet snake is my snake! If someone has a corn snake they'll say their snake is the best. Same goes with python owners, boa owners and so on. If you are interested in snakes, shop around, find an individual snake that you click with. I was at a pet store today shopping for my wife's new puppy. I still checked out the reptile section and met a ball python that was cool. He was outgoing and friendly for a pet store snake but not as awesome as my Boa at home. I made friends with a couple of ferrets too. Boas are chow hounds but they can learn the difference between handling time and feeding time. I have tweezers with bright red tips on them. When she sees the tweezers, she knows it's food time. If I just open her cage, pet her or pick her up, she's relaxed. She hates going back in. I gave up trying to put her in her cage. Now I'll set her down near the cage, she'll do a couple of laps around the cage, scoot over to the turtle cage to say hi to Squirt the painted turtle, then find her way into her own enclosure so I can close and lock it up. It looks like she wants to be friends with the turtle but the turtle thinks she's a delicious ramen noodle.

I know ball pythons are considered pretty basic but they are absolute angels. I got a female that was already taking frozen-thawed rats and I've never had an issue with her eating. I originally wanted many different kinds of snakes, but now I think I'm going to get maybe four or five BPs instead

@smorc65 Год назад

For smallest of the small, I think you could make an arguement for either anthill pythons or some of the very small north american colubrids, like ringnecks, but in the former case they're very rare and expensive, and in the latter case they're rare, almost only wild-caught, fragile, and fossorial, so both cases are, for now, not one's I'd recommend
