cant tell you were to buy them since im not in england, but if she wants a bright snake go for a tangerine honduran they get good size and are hardy. Or an albino nelson milk is also very bright I post a few pics of mine. And kings are a bit nippy but some are nice most kings will grow out of the nippy phase. And some milks will musk tho its some very smelly stuff instead of nipping at you.

Thanks. Have seen an albino nelsons that she likes. Colours are amazing. But looked at a few adult ones to and the colours seem to fade a bit with the albino. But love the Honduran myself. Just depends now on the go ahead from my wife. Fingers crossed.

Rang viper and vine and they can order a Honduran for me. I work in Manchester so it's only five miles away from work. Also a p@h near mess will look in there. Let you know when were sorted.
