Snakes as pets

As exotic pets, snakes can be fascinating, but also a daunting undertaking. If you want to talk to the enthusiasts, this group is definitely well worth a visit. There are not that many threads on the discussion board, but two 'Ball Python Care Sheet' and 'Snake Care FAQs' are highly informative on what caring for a snake actually involves. More about unusual quirks of snakes and just who has what, can be found on the wall. In the gallery, you will find more than a hundred images of snakes such as rainbow boas, West African Gaboon Adders, red tailed rat snakes and pinstripe morph ball pythons. Don't be fooled by the fact that some of them have such homey names as 'Mum', 'Dad' and 'Kate'.

What's great about this group: It will probably answer a lot of the questions you've had about keeping snakes as pets.

Update (29 October 2023)

The group Snakes as Pets Support Group is tiny (less than 50 members), but public. I'm not sure if it is the same group. To visit or join, go here.
