Just wanted to give a shout out!
Hey guys and gals, I am zack b. Just wanted to tell everyone about myself. I was raised in FT.Lauderdale FL where my dad was a police officer. He used to bring home snakes all the time and let them go in my back yard. When I was three my dad bought me a cal kingsnake. When I was a little bit older my dad bought me a ball python joey. We would later find out he was a she. lol. After that I was all about snakes.Almost every birthday or christmas my parents bought me a new snake. I had 12 by the time I was 12. Balls bloods carpets rats boas. I loved them all. My love went on to buying a lot more carpet pythons. I was interested in them so much! I started trying to breed them but nothing happend. My understanding of what it took to breed them was way off. I started working for a reptile store and their I would learn a lot more knowledge of what it takes to be a reptile owner and breeder. As my collection grew my over all ability to be sober plumited. I was lost in the most harsh reality one could dream of. Subject everyday to gang activity drugs and crime I became numb to the thought of honost living. I was forced to sell all my snakes by my dad and get clean. It took countless attempts but finaly one day when the cops showed up at my front door to take me to jail, I regained understanding and sobered up quick. My life since then has been charished. I met a girl that is incredible and we live together now. I found a nitch for selling things and became one of the best in the business. And of course I started building my collection back up. This time it was all about the ball pythons. I could now afford the morphs that I couldnt in previous years. My collection has grown substantialy and so has my love for the hobby. Thanks for having me everyone. And I hope I dont offend you if I say something that might sound critical. I am just a person trying to get away from the tragadies of life. And the tragic truth is that some have to fight harder then others just to get hear. I do not plan on stopping hear. I want the world and Im sorry if some people dont understand that. But this is me. I am successful so quickly because of that fact. Hopefully I can be successful hear to.

I wrote this because a lot of people questioned my experiance. Yes I went a little over bored but I felt others needed to understand. I am proud of my sobriaty and I am proud that I am a snake owner amongst manny other things. A lot of people do not think me to be rational and I think thats funny. I am so rational compared to how I grew u, I wish you could see the difference. Some dont want to hear me reconcile others dont want to hear me period. Well im here and I will learn as much as I can.
