nope, definitely a colubrid, my guess would be a kingsnake (Lampropeltis getula most likely). Usually fairly snappy snake, and more food-orientated than a starved labrador, but this one is probably a pet, so is used to people.

I wouldn't actually mind making that account, assuming it doesn't already exist...

My brother wants to get one but i personally don't see him as a constant-care type of person.....

Depends a lot on the snake, does he have an idea of what he wants?

erotictentacle ONLINE (12/02/2015) [-] i remember him mentioning corn and ball pythons
though i think ball pythons isn't just a single race but like a category of snakes, no?

ball pythons are a species, just like corn snakes. They just have loads of different genetic mutations that mean they come in loads of colours and patterns depending on how much you want to spend.
Personally I'd recommend him to get a corn snake, as they're much more active than ball pythons so are more interesting.
As far as care goes, you have to change their water every day, clean out their poo whenever they poo, and feed them once every 5-14 days (depending on how old they are).

How does he know when the snake's hungry? and is it true that snakes need live prey?

You don't really need to know when it's hungry, just offer it food according to the schedule and it will take it if the temperatures are correct.
As for live prey, absolutely not. I currently have over a dozen snakes at my place and not a single one of them eats live food. It's all bought frozen, stored in our freezer, and then defrosted in warm water on feeding day. Live feeding risks injuring the snake, and is relatively cruel if not done properly.

Alright, thank you Mr. Snakeexpert, i'll relay your information.
Have a nice day!

no, you buy frozen food from the shop, keep it in your freezer until you need it, then defrost it at home in warm water. If it doesn't eat it straight away, leave it in overnight, and if it's still there in the morning, throw it away.
NEVER refreeze the food, it can basically give the snake food poisoning

Nah, you've just got to do the research first, you'd be amazed how many people ask the same question.
If you want more specific information, just google 'corn snake care sheet' and you should get a lot of information. If you come across anything that confuses you, or have any questions that the sheets don't answer, just shoot me a PM

Red touch yellow, kill the fellow, and all that.
