Re: Help choosing snake

So perhaps I misunderstand, but you are giving away your corn snake because it got too big, and now you want an aquatic snake that will also outgrow the tank? Will you just keep getting rid of your animals when they get to big? That seems really wrong, but maybe I'm misunderstanding what you mean

Maybe this person can't afford a new cage for the corn snake.

...but can afford a new snake???


How about just getting an appropriately sized enclosure for the corn?

I can get a water snake for around 15$ - 25$.

A tank would cost 100+

I'm handing my snake over to my friend because he has much larger tanks I feel he would be more suited for and he always wanted a pet snake but never got around to getting one. As I said I'm looking to get a juvenile, I'm not exactly sure on how fast they will grow but I'm assuming a 25g tank would be fine for a while until I eventually get a new tank. Don't have the money right now to buy a new tank at the moment.
