Hi, welcome to the forum
They dont cost much to keep once you have the set-up and equipment needed. It costs me £30-£35 a year I think to feed my corn, so thats for you to decide wether you need a job or not.
They are generaly solitary but can be kept together. If you decide to keep 2 or more snakes together there is a thread on here worth reading about the differant views on it. |

Hi, Welcome.
You're probably looking at ~£75 for the initial setup + cost of snake and then as Matty says, about £30 food for the year. |
