Just Would Like to Say Some Meaningful Words to the BP.net Community

[CoolioTiffany]

I've been going on here for two years now, time has definitely passed very quickly. But these past two years have been wonderful on BP.net, and I've had an amazing experience here. I've met some down-to-earth people, gnarly breeders, and all over a wonderful group of snake hobbyists. Honestly I forget how friendly people can be until I pop up on this forum. Although, not only the members of the forum have made my experience awesome, all the information I've acquired about anything related to the reptile hobby has helped me take several steps farther towards my future career.

All the information I've taken in from this forum has made even real life experiences amazing, such as seeing the stoked faces on people when they finally touch their first snake, helping people overcome their fear, giving out information to new keepers/owners, and even seeing how surprised people can get after seeing a reptile room full of different species of reptiles and invertebrates. I was even told very recently that my reptile room is far more interesting than the reptile house at the Phoenix Zoo. A compliment like that makes me feel like a billion dollars.

The most accomplishing feeling in my life by far was the day my female Ball python laid her eggs (June 6). When I purchased her, I never had the intention or the thought cross my mind that I was going to breed her. I've never stuck to sports, activities, or anything. The only "trophies" I have are my tarantula molts LOL. Keeping snakes is basically what my life revolves around, so with that in mind, producing my very own clutch was overwhelming.

I would just love to say thank you to everyone whose helped me out with anything and everything. I honestly couldn't give enough thanks. I wouldn't know bull-poop if it wasn't for this forum. It has been pretty much my dream to make it this far and have the animals I currently own. I thought about making a thread like this exactly a year ago, but I didn't exactly get around to it. I'm still learning new stuff all the time on here and glad to be doing so. Hope you guys enjoyed the thread, even if it was a tad lengthy.
