I got my first snake 5 years ago. It was a corn snake then I got my first ball python about a year and a half ago. That summer I bought 4 other ball pythons and have ended up with 23 going on 24 snakes and 2 geckos and 2 turtles.

LOL you started out just like I did: One normal Ball python in the beginning, another normal Ball, then the first morph, a Spider Ball python!:D

Ball pythons are wayy too addicting..

I got a Normal ball python on October 8th, then after the reptile expo yesterday, i now have 3, a normal, albino, and spider. What is it with people getting a Spider as the first morph? I love the fact that the gene is dominant and can be combined with a good amount of stuff. Also i love the calico type pigment loss on the under belly.

Stephen.

I got my first snake, a corn , 8 years ago. 2 years later I got a second then after that I bought another and instead of buying 1 a year it was 2. Finally I got my first bps 2.5 years ago, A male and female pair of ch. Then it started to get crazy. When I got the 2 bps I was still under 10 snakes, now I am at over 40, most of those are bps. I am now breeding them so my numbers continue to rise. I also have 13 lizards/geckos.

right there with ya!!! My mom got my son a normal for his b-day...I fell in love. About 3 weeks later I went out and got a bee. Now it is about 5 weeks later and I am going to the show on Saturday with the intentions of getting a lesser or a butter or a black pastel or a ............ (you get the hint there)!!!!

Wow seriously we are totally shopping together, I'm going to ditch my mom and grandpa and go shopping for BPs with you instead.. but you gotta bare with me when I get to the Beardies:D

Well my first BP I got her about 7 months ago. She is growing fast and beautiful. My pride and joy :D

Not even 2 months of having her, I bought a Lemon Pastel about her same age of Sloan Reptiles here in these forums. He was growing fast, But now he is off feed. He is beautiful too, although he has brown out some.

At this point I was in love with Bee's and when I first saw a pic of a Axanthic Killer Bee, I was hooked on Axanthics. Hopefuly I will make one in the years down the road.

A few months later I bought a yearling VPI axanthic male. He was severly under weight, but I felt in love with this morph, even if it was just an Axanthic that wasnt mixed with anything else yet. He also arrived almost frozen... :( But he is doing great now and hasnt missed a meal. He has grown alot! more than doubled his weight in only some months.

Last week I got my first spider, my other favorite morph! I waited patiently to find the perfect spider for me. I bought her Of Mike Cavanaugh here in the forums.

Thats all the BPs I realy wanted and needed for the Axanthic Killer Bee. The years down the road will be fun! :gj:

Im thinking of getting also a Fire and a High Gold Normal to clean up the morphs, but Im not sure about that at this point :)

4 years ago I got a normal boy, 2 years after that a pastel, and this year I've gotten a spider and a big normal girl... and I still want more :D
