    My new additions! (a few pictures)
    So finally, after a long time coming, I was able to expand my reptile, well more accurately my snake, collection. And I could not be more stoked! But first a little back story.

    I have had various reptiles my whole life, but only got to get snakes after I had moved out, as my mom did not dig snakes haha, so 6 years ago. I have had a regular ball python for 6 years, I got him 2 weeks after I moved out, as well bearded dragon and a roommate with a crestie. Well me and my gf decided we wanted to try and move to Australia, her fam is from there and yata yata yata. So I found a good home for the beardie (a buddy who was normally into amphibians, but stepped up) and begged my brother to take care of my snake cause I couldn't bare to give him up, which he did. So we tried to make a go of it in Aus, long story short couldn't not make the full move on the funds we had, so we just chilled and had a rad time for 6 months.

    I had always wanted to get more snakes, but was never in a position that I could responsibly get more. So it has always be an unforfilled dream to get more. Well it's a dream no more! We got back in April, and we decided that we should try to buy a house instead of renting, so we did, with some help, and we move in sept 1. This was all part of the grand plan to fulfill my dream of getting more snakes, cause if I couldn't be in Australia then I was definitely getting snakes! And I could not be more happy!

    Im a carpenter by trade, so we looked for a place with an unfinished basement, so I can build my reptile room. But for the time between last weekend and sept 1 I have to house them at my dads. So that's why I have the funky set up right now (as you'll see in the pictures) but it's actually working out quite well!

    Anyway sorry for the novel, but I had to show my snakes and thought a little back story was needed. I've browsed n read on the site for years as a guest and a bit as a user but I've never posted much, but I had to show off my new snakes!
