My daughter [11 yrs old] has been begging me for over a year to keep a pet snake, and she is especially fond of Milk Snakes because of her experience with them in her classroom. I really want to say yes to her!
I don't have a lot of money to waste, and I see that keeping a snake for a pet can cost a lot of money!
I would appreciate some advice about how to enjoy a snake as a pet, while not spending an arm and a leg 1) Equipment, I have already scrounged a used 60 gallon tank, with undertank heater, screen lid, and thermometer. I also found a 60 watt ceramic IR radient heater. 2) The snake, we can live without the expense of owning one of the rare fancy breed that cost upwards of $500! Are more common varieties cheaper? [I hope.] Where might they be found? 3) A mouse a week, hmmm, what does that cost? 4) What other costs haven't I thought about?
