Greetings from Grand Island NY!
Hello everyone! My name is Will and i'm currently a Secondary Biology Education student in Graduate School at Buffalo State College with a huge passion for reptiles! I've had a love for reptiles since I was a little kid, but it was only a few years ago that I decided to take it a step further and spread my love of reptiles with others through educational presentations and hobby breeding. I have to say it has been one of the most rewarding experiences seeing people look at reptiles in a new light by seeing what amazing and beautiful creatures they really are through education. I look forward to meeting all of you here at ball-pythons.net and hopefully making a bunch of new friends! :)
Here's some photos of the reptiles I breed and use for educational presentations! I hope you enjoy! :D (Also new to photobucket and image uploading, my bad if they vary so much in size :oops:)

Oz at the Buffalo State Science Fair! It was the first time touching or even holding a snake for most of these people, and they seem to love it! :D

Re: Greetings from Grand Island NY!
Thank you! I picked her up from 2013 National Reptile Breeder's Expo in Daytona this year from Mike Wilbanks. She's a cute little thing, just feeding her up till she's ready to breed about 2 or so years down the road.
Re: Greetings from Grand Island NY!
I get that alot actually when people see them for the first time. I normally talk to them about reptiles throwing in some fun facts, and they always seem work up the courage to hold or at the least touch the snakes during the presentations. I like to use a method I first saw from Brian Barczyk, by making my presentations an "edutainment" experience for people. That way they have fun, and they learn some new things in the process. :D
