How long did you have your first before you got another?

My current housing situation only allows for one, but one day...

I started slow. I had my first BP for almost 4 years before I got another snake but not because I didn't want one. I picked up 3 more between June and August and I'm going to the Hamburg PA show on 10/15 and may get more if I can find good deals...

I got my first BP as a rehome from a friend a few years ago. A nice large normal female.
Ive had corn snakes and kingsnakes before but never a BP.
then I got interested in them and read up on breeding and saved some money and I boomed into my collection. In 6 months i got 12 snakes. Now Im all full up unless I build another rack lol which i might break down and do.
they are VERY addicting!

I started slow as well. Had my first normal girl for about 5 years before I decided to get another one. Of course, my mind frame has changed from having an awesome pet to breeding so there might be some correlation.

got first bp in may, got second one beginning of september. but i did put a down payment on 2 bps in august so ill have 2 more next month when i finish paying for them. plus any that i get at the 2 shows coming up if im not completely broke at least.

I got my first Last December. By March I built a rack and bought 2 more. April brought along another, and finally this week I added a boa.

But it's not addicting.

Going on three years and still don't have another bp! Do have a boa though! Someday though!

But it's not addicting.

No, of course not..... *wink wink nudge nudge*

I have always love reptiles and wanted one for a long time, but in high school my parents wouldn't let me. I got pregnant and married very young and my ex husband was a controlling...er...guy...and wouldn't let me get one. I finally realized Jan of this year that I have nothing holding me back from getting one. I came home with my little Julius in Jan, I now have 8 ball pythons, 1 boa, 1 rat, 2 hermit crabs, and 1 tarantula (a.versi) lol. It's an addiction for sure. I remember telling my co-workers "I only want one!" hahahaha

I've always loved reptiles and had the random pet through the years. As a kid I used to go searching for reptiles and finding turtles in the NJ meadowlands was a pastime. I had a bearded dragon through most of my time in college. But because of school and living with my parents, I never went further than that. Now I'm done with school and have my career started, so last fall I was like "what am I waiting for?" So here we are 8 ball pythons (soon 10) and 4 hognoses later.. Lol..
