Glad I am not the only one, who, as a teen wanted a snake.

I am guessing, he took care of them for the most part. Which, I did at his age too. It might be worth mentioning, he, might not "grow out" of this "phase". I most defiantly did not. I grew "into it"

I can't say I blame him, that is a fantastic species. For both new keepers and the most advanced hobbyists.

Sounds like a very reasonable plan, in my humble opinion.

I would recommend a simple Google search and looking at this portion of Fauna:

Hope that was somewhat helpful. Looking forward to hearing about your son and his new specimen soon.
