Hi every, I've been a visitor here and other reptile forums for a few weeks now and finally decided to join up. I've kept numerous reptiles as pets of one form or another in my teenage years. I kept a few boas and burmese as a teenager. Long story short, I got married at twenty-one, wife got rid of the snakes, rocky marriage, got divorced a couple months ago at twenty-eight and discovered a renewed love for snakes! Maybe this time I should find a woman that loves or even tolerates reptiles!
I will admit, I have not been much for on-line forums of any types. The reason I signed up here is, I want to learn more about Ball Pythons in general. I have one girl that is about three years old according to the previous owner that works at the local PetCo. He informed me that the best place to learn about snakes was on-line and told me about Kingsnake.com along with a few other sites. My only herp conversations have been limited to picking up some fish food and tank supplies from PetCo.
First, I was amazed to see how far the herp world as come in the past eight to ten years! I never thought I would see snakes being sold for $10,000.. :eek:. All I knew was pet store snakes that sold for $30-$125 around locally back in those days. I would love to buy a Spider or maybe an Albino BP, I've fallen in love with about ten other color morphs in the past couple weeks. Another snake I would love to own and most definitely will, is an Albino Boa.
I have a two bedroom townhouse and God willing can convert one room into a reptile room.
Sorry for the long post, I just thought I would say hello and break the ice.
