At present, the snakes most commonly kept as docile pets include the green snake, the black-browed snake, the king snake, the yellow-chained snake, and more than a dozen snake species.

Cui Green snake: The green snake is small in size, bright in color, and non-venomous. It is suitable for friends who like alternative pets to enjoy and raise. When raising green snakes, it would be best if you have a professional transparent snake breeding box. If not, you can make your own or use a transparent plexiglass container instead. Before raising, you can lay a layer of flower soil in the box and plant some plants or flowers suitable for indoor growth to create a quiet and comfortable living environment for the snake. It is best to place the breeding box in a relatively secluded place to prevent human interference.

The green snake's food includes blue-gray earthworms, small frogs and various insects. In order to induce the newly purchased green snake to eat, you can break the skin of earthworms or other food, so that the smell of the body fluids of the food will attract the snake and induce the snake to eat. After the snake is full, it can stay away for several days.

Black-browed snake: Before the renovation of rural housing, the black-browed snake was a common snake species affectionately called "house snake". They are like swimming dragons and move quickly. Not only are they good at catching rats through halls, but they can also climb pillars and beams to the roof to chase escaping rats.

Yellow chain snake: Prefers to be arboreal, living in mountainous forests, grass and dwarf trees near streams and ditches. Activity begins in the evening and is most active at night. It mainly feeds on lizards, but also eats the eggs of small snakes and reptiles.
