Anyone's hubby/wife irritated with our hobby?

My husband DETESTS snakes/reptiles/rodents anything like that.. but "puts up" with my hobby/passion.. I have to *AHEM* :redface: do unspeakable favors for him to shut him the HECK up.. but i guess that means he loves me because he sleeps in the room with the snakes :D :snake: Anyways.. SORRY if that's TMI.. i'm bored at work and i'm sick of looking at excel.. :gj:

Two years ago my wife was disgusted by snakes. Then We got our first and now i can't keep her from constantly wanting more. She even bought me a rack for Christmas :)

That's funny.. my husband sees how tame my little BP's are.. but doesn't want anything to do with them.. little does he know.. i've got 2 more coming tomorrow ;)

My wife is always looking around finding the best deals. She finds me 2-3 snakes a month to add to our collection.

My Boyfriend doesn't dislike the hobby... He did however tell me I couldn't complain about him buying new guns all the time after I picked up 3 new snakes a few weeks ago. :P

Hmm.. Sounds like it may tie in with the OP. :rolleyes:

My husband isn't exactly thrilled with my snakes, but Ive found that getting him involved with them kind of helps. He's named half of my collection and I always ask his opinion on what I'm about to buy. He's also going to be the one who decides which male to put to my het albino girl (I'm leaning towards the calico pastel, but the cinnapin or lesser bee would be nice as well). The best trick to get them to enjoy the snakes more is to NEVER ask them to help clean!

He also acknowledges that as long as I have all these snakes plus my dog, I won't hound him about wanting a baby, so there's that.

Three years ago I was the one who didn't want another snake in the house. Now I'm the one doing the window-shopping for when my new group of Dumeril's boas is done with QT.

My wife got me started with snakes, then she says I ruined it for her because now its work LoL

My fiancé is going to help me pick out a new boa in May! He's not as obsessed with snakes as I am but he likes them.
