"Hi! My name is Sarah I am coming to you today from Pet Land in Pembroke Pines, Florida and on behalf of expertvillage.com. I am going to speak with you a little bit about choosing a pet snake. Some of the species of snakes that we do not recommend be pets are Burmese pythons, anacondas and reticulated pythons as these grow to be very, very large in size and are not suitable pets in a normal household situation. All those species that I have just mentioned grow to very sizes and can be aggressive once they are older that is why we do not recommend them as pets. We absolutely positively do not recommend keeping venomous reptiles as pets while there may be some venomous reptiles out there that are very attractive they are extremely dangerous and should not be kept by your average reptile owner. Once again we do not recommend keeping venomous reptiles as pets. They are far too many very attractive, very docile snakes that can be kept as pets that are not venomous.
