Hi all! My name is Mandy, and I am new to this forum, however not new to Royals. Grew up working in a pet shop with my parents, from day one I knew I wanted into that Rep room (I was about 9 or 10.) However, I got stuck on dead fish duty. Within a few months they saw they couldn't keep me out of the rep room and decided to let me have a shot at it. It was love at first sight. We've owned several critters, tarantulas, geckos, corns, Red Tails, Burms, Iguanas, however my love has always been for Ball Pythons. After moving out, it took me a few years to convince my husband to allow us to have any in the house, but after 6-7 years I finally got him to agree, and surprise, surprise... he's now a firm believer that they are the best pets we have ever owned. Recently got involved with some local shops and breeders, and am just now getting into the world of Morphs, expos, and all that goodness. Looking forward to gaining lots of knowledge!
