Hey all, some of you may remember me and most of you may not. I kinda disappeared off the face of the reptile planet a while back to deal with some personal issues, but I'm back in prime condition now and ready to rebuild my collection. (Don't worry, nothing bad happened to my old snakies; they were all responsibly rehomed when the need arose).

Anyways, a little bit about me:

My name is Mike Schultz. I am currently 22 and I have bred and kept reptiles for about 11 or 12 years now. I spent 2 years working for Ian G/Outback Reptiles caring for animals in their import facility and occasionally helping with the massive ball python collection. I'm currently living in Pittsburgh and working as a cook at a restaurant. I moved out of an 80+ degree reptile building into an 80+ degree kitchen

Anyways, I've had plenty of experience in dealing with reptiles and amphibians of all shapes and sizes but my main interest lies in snakes. My favorites are redtails, ball pythons, and amazon tree boas. I also have a year of experience keeping my own northern copperhead and two years working with numerous tarantula species.

My current collection includes nothing but a single baby albino burmese python and a few empty, albeit nicely furnished, cages and terrariums which I plan to fill soon! I also have a bunch of tarantulas arriving in the mail tomorrow...

Anyways, glad to be back in good health and ready to get back into hobby.
