Hi, I am looking into getting a snake, and general opinion is that Corn Snakes are the best bet for a Newb. Any advice would be appreciated, as well as any good suppliers/stockists in the NorthWest.
Thanks. |

Thanks, Chef.
Was in one of the places you mentioned the other day. Would agree with you, not the most professional of set-ups !!
(is that description PC enough so as not to offend anyone ??!!) |

Unfortunately it's been about 10 years since I was there, and can't remember any of them.
All I can remember was that the one I used to go to was near the snooker hall in Widnes. |
