:Hello,
: Either one of the 3 you mentioned would be a great second snake... My personal opinion for a snake that is easy to care for and can be handled is a Corn. They do not get to big and are a commonly docile snake. Kings and Milks are also good choices, however from personal experience they tend to be a touch more skittish when younger.
:Either way read the caresheets and info provided on the myriad of websites, kingsnake.com has some great info. Get educated about your next snake and have fun.

:Good Luck in your quest,
:Charles

::Right now, I have a 6 month old ball python, and i am looking for another snake. The only problem is I dont know what kind to get! I want one that is easy to care for and docile so i can handle it. I've been kind of leaning towards a king, corn, or milk, due to their colors, but i dont know much about them. Can someone please help me and tell me what is best for me?
::Thanks
