    Would You Consider Yourself Addicted?

    Would you consider yourself addicted to keeping reptiles and/or amphibians? I know there are some people who do not specialize in amphibians, and others that don't specialize in reptiles, but I'm asking do you consider yourself addicted to what your are keeping?

    Some people just have reptiles or amphibians because they like them, think they are cool, and want to show off, but they just don't keep them for the love of the hobby. If you're one of those people, select no. If you are keeping your reptiles and/or amphibians for the love of the hobby and are willing to provide all the care they need, select yes.

    Re: Would You Consider Yourself Addicted?

    I'm not sure.. I've been into snakes for a bout 5 months now and I've owned 3 ball pythons, 2 red tail, a bearded dragon and a salmontine boa. Am I? O_o

    Noob question. What do the numbers mean in a lot of peoples signatures? for example "2.0 Something python"

    Re: Would You Consider Yourself Addicted?

    I'm addicted to reptiles and amphibs, and pets in general.

    The fact that i spend too much time on this one website is proof.

    I'm also addicted to TV, fishing, and plenty of other things I'll not bother to mention. I think that my addiction to reptiles and pets is pretty harmless except to my wallet However the happiness it brings is totally worth it.

    Well said. My reptiles always seem to put a smile on my face somehow. I don't know how they do it, but they just can.

    Re: Would You Consider Yourself Addicted?

    Yeah Im addicted. Not like I was though. When I started out I was addicted to the point that I impulse bought several snakes because of the good deal, instead of considering what Im going to do with them breeding wise. I had big dreams of producing lots of clutches and sharing my animals with the world. Now Im more focused on producing less animals but the best quality examples that I can. Hard lesson to learn, Ive got 3 extra animals now that I cant do anything with for a loooooong time.

    Re: Would You Consider Yourself Addicted?

    honestly the way I feel towards keeping reptiles must be how a junky need's his/her crack I just have to buy something when I am at reptile show's I get so excited and shake I just love the hobby and passion others have for it as well. My question is why do drugs when you can buy a ball-python?
    NEVER RELEASE FISH OR REPTILES OR ANY ANIMAL INTO THE WILD.

    Please read the CARESHEET! to make sure you're doing the best you can for your pet.

    I don't really think I'm addicted, addiction is typically considered a problem .
