    New guy from Alabama
    Morning everyone. My name is Michael, I live in Blount County Alabama. I am married with 3 boys. I grew up with many different pets, from ball and Burmese, to Green Iguanas and a pet bass. My wife was deathly afraid of snakes when we met. After 12 years she finally allowed me to rescue Neo. He is a Normal Ball who was kept in a 10 gallon tank with a heat rock for the first year of his life. When I acquired him, he was roughly 175 grams @ 23" long. There was a dead medium mouse in the corner of the tank that had turned into furry leather. Bedding hadn't been changed in months. We transferred him into a 40 gallon with fresh bedding and he ate a FT Weaned Rat immediately. He is now on FT Small Rat and is now 300-315 grams @ 29". He is outgrowing his enclosure but I am building a new one now. It should be complete within the next few weeks. I wanted to post a picture of it but cant figure out how to add pics. Anywho, I have received a lot of valuable information off of this forum so I figured I would join in and continue to learn.

    I still cant figure out how to post pics. Do I have to use another website and link them in or can I direct upload?
