:angered: Ok here something to do..
How many of you have loved ones that don't like your scale covered friends. Or even better didn't like them and now love them more than you do now.
I'll start. My Girlfriend talked me into getting my first herp a male leopard gecko that we loving call spot. He was a runaway that Petsmart had let get out and later caught he was living under his tank and eating escaped crickets. I was hooked. I had spot for over a year before I even thought about getting a snake. After reading about balls and playing with them at a shop a breeder had here in Jackson I bought one.My girl is deathly scared of snakes so I made her name him so she would have some connection with him. She called him Orpheus, its greek for "the darkness of night". She thinks he's good looking for a snake but want touch him or even be around when I feed him. But I told her that he would be here for a long time and she has like 40 years to get use to him so to take her time and not rush things and when shes ready I would let her do what ever
