We regularly do the "favorite tortoises" topic, but how about everyone's favorite snakes. I'll start:

1. Scrub Python. Hands down my favorite snake on the planet.
2. Black headed Python. A close second.
3. Brazilian Rainbow Boas.
4. Carpet Pythons and all the mixes... jungle etc...
5. Eastern Indigos.
6. Gaboon Vipers.
7. King Cobras... although I have a VERY healthy respect for these ones... wouldn't want one, but I just like and admire them a lot.

I like lots of other ones too, but these are my favorites.

Mine is very boring compared to yours. My favorite is ....drum roll.....GARTER snakes. I used to catch them as a kid. After asking my dad of course if it was indeed a garter, then I would catch it. I always let it go though.. Good memories.

- King cobras - Like Tom, I don't really have a huge desire to own one, but certainly just one of my favorites all around.
- Boelen's pythons - A rare, expensive animal I'll likely never own, but I can always dream. I did get to pet one once. Very silky-feeling!
- European ratsnakes (Aesculapian, leopards, etc.)
- African house snakes

...most obscure species tend to pique my interest.

A dead one...

Just kidding.

I like a lot of snakes but my favorite would have to be Hognose. Hands down the cutest most curious little guys. Such funny little snakes! Who's favorite snake is a Reticulated Python, cause I have one with your name on it!

I am a little bias to my albino rat, but the fer de lance is pretty cool too! There is a veeeerrryyy feisty one living at the Dallas World Aquarium, just sayin. Eyelash vipers and Green Tree Pythons are beautiful ones too.

I love canebrake and pygmy rattlers.

Mine are tame by comparison
Ball python (had one for over 20 years)
and the rosy boa.

Any that are not in my house...

Favourite...snake?? Never actually seen those 2 words in the same sentence before...odd ;-)

i dont my snakes well, never heard of the ones Tom mentioned.. so i will go with the tried and true, Ball python

Green Tree Snake!

funny but i do like snakes. here are some i like. KING COBRAS, EMERALD GREEN PIT VIPERS, CORAL SNAKES , CALIFORNIA and a cute snake called REDEAR SLIDER GARTER SNAKE. my husband thinks i am kooks because i like snakes. i dont keep them, that doesnt mean i cant like them.

I like this one...

Amazon Basin emerald tree boa...hands down! My favorite of all-time...and the most beautiful!
black mamba (and yes...I like KOBE too)
Eastern diamondback...the largest venoumous snake in the States...deserves some love here!
California mountain kingsnake (ironically, I don't care for corals at all).
Burmese python...always had a penchant for growing these things to more than 10 feet by the time they were a year old!
Gaboon, rhinceros, Russell's viper
Puff, death adder
...and, of course the KING!

Footnote: I've owned several specimens of each of 'em...except the KING...I only had one of them...an 8 ft female! Didn't know she was a she until I sold her and later found she produced several clutches.

i had a redtail boa, but my favorite is the green tree python
