Do you know any family friends or neighhbors that are in need of a babysitter? If so, this would be an easy way to earn some cash...  |

just for the record it'll be more then that: wont u need a cage/stuff for the cage, food (live mice isnt it :S?), etc... for this snake? My guess would be it'd be bout $50 more dollars if not MORE to get that stuff (id imagine a cage thingy would be pricey) and arent mice like $20 each? You'd have to keep feeding him think of that too...  |

Are you sure that you want a snake? Like what Queen Crazy mentioned, it will cost more money for a cage/tank (where ever you keep a snake), food, lighting in there, and other stuff. I think that snakes are pretty cool but I'm not sure if I would want to spend that much money on a pet snake. My fiance's old friend had a snake once and during it's feeding time, the snake bit him. I'm not saying that all snakes will do that but you never know and this snake was pretty tame. All I can think of as for getting money is maybe doing some babysitting, maybe have a garage sale with your folks?, pet sitting, return in soda cans (if your place recycles for cash), could do some yard work, or you could borrow from your parents and pay them back whenever you can. Good luck to you!  |

thats true, the cages and food cost quite a bit! but i know how you feel...i love snakes. maybe you could babysit for neighborhood people (friends etc) or maybe your parents will help out and give you extra chores around the house to earn the money (thats what i do when my son feels he needs something really bad LOL) best of luck  |

It may be a desire to have the snake, but do you realize the cost of raising one to remain healthy?? A vet bill is outrageous for a snake due to the risks involved. I have owned 4 of them, and used to breed them along with my scorpions, snakes are costly to maintain properly.  |

Dunno...I kind of have the same problem. I'm old enough to work, but I don't want to. I don't know what I want to buy either, but I want to buy something. I don't know much, do I?  |

I have a snake, they make really good pets. They don't need much attention (but they are cute when they rub through your hair) and you get to feed them dead mice (blow-drying them to defrost them is so funny, the little dead micies get all sorts of groovy hairstyles!)  |
