    Time to introduce myself!

    So I have been lurking the forums for about a month and I absolutely love this site, it is definitely a great way of passing time in class haha. Any way I thought it was time I introduce myself. My name is Josh and I have only recently got into reptiles. My little brother got a bearded dragon at the beginning of the year and immediately my family was hooked! Shortly after we got two crested gecko's and tortoise (all of which shortly became my responsibility to take care of). It was about that time I held a snake for the first time, it was a California king snake I believe, I was completely mesmerized and had to have one. It took about a month of debating with mum but eventually I talked her into letting me into getting a Nelson milk snake, both me and my mother (who at the time was petrified at the idea of having snake in the house) are in love with her. Well it has been a few well it has been several months and I am just dying to expand my collection, but my parents are saying enough is enough no more reptiles, so I came up with a little scheme. I told my parents that if they let me breed ball pythons I would give them a percentage of the profits, it took a bit of negotiating but I have finally received the thumbs up from my dad. Now before I get lectured by you guys let me tell you I am fully aware that people rarely even make a profit breeding ball pythons but I honestly am not in it for that at all, I am just looking for an excuse to get more snakes haha. I will begin setting everything up at the end of this month because I am turning 18 on the 27th and will be receiving some money from a lawsuit my family was in. Until then I will continue to absorb as much information as I can. Sorry this ended up being so long. I really look forward to getting to know you guys In the following years!

    Time to introduce myself!

    Ok here are some quick pictures I found on my phone

    Lucy the milk snake


    Sebastian the bearded dragon



    Lily and my mums gecko that she has still not named. Lily is the one on her own, my mum's is tho one licking its eye.


    And Jessie the tortoise


    As for as which morphs I am planning on starting off with I am still pretty much undecided, at the moment I am thinking of getting like a pinstripe, a spider, and maybe a pastel. Idk haha there are so many to choose from!
