    Got my anniversary present

    Well, I figured that we were going to do a simple inexpensive anniversary this year (our third year together), but it seems as if the wife saved up the money so I could get the Pastel Colombian Boa I had been wanting.

    She came in yesterday, and is a beauty.









    She got her from JnJ Reptiles, and let me tell you, the guy was a pleasure to do business with. Great guy, and was on the ball for shipping, and was always available for questions.

    Suck up every chance you get, and tell her how beautiful she is every day. It will earn you suckup points that you can cash in for the things you want.

    Good sir. I must remind you that you have to find the right woman.

    I must also remind you that I believe that I got the very last good woman on this planet.

    Re: Got my anniversary present

    DITTO !!
    I got my first bp after much begging and whining. and then a few months later, she let me get a second one. After that about a month later my pastel, and finally my she "allowed" me to get a bci at a expo here in Ky. my son now has the male normal bp. He's 11 and does an awesome job taking care of Yoda. My 6 year old daughter helps out as well. She's getting good at handling too. my wife is slowly coming around. She'll hold them if i beg, but not the bci (Bebe). All I had to do to get started, was to complain about her cats.lol but I think that 4 snakes will be my limit. I allways remind her that we never find chewed things or hairballs while we're gone. I too believe that I've hit the lottery with my wife. I think that in her opinion, she's serving time being married to me.!!!

    Re: Got my anniversary present

    I believe that 4 is my limit. My house is plenty big, but, i already have enough toys. Like i said, she's very tolerant!! i have always said that there's a fine line but big difference between accepting and approving...i'm a very blessed man..

    Nice Boa. Good to have an understanding spouse too. Mine is fully onboard with me getting as many snakes as we can reasonably house in a basement just as long as she can have parrots lol.
