How today started

I got up at about 5:45 AM and drove to the local Animal Show to help my friend with sales and such. Not long after I get there, he hands me a ball python which is beginning to shed and tells me to take the shed off. So I start to take it off as gently as possible when the snake starts urinating all over me. And as if that weren't enough, as soon as I start cleaning the urine off myself WHAM! Bites me right on the leg! Didn't hurt much at all though.

So later, I start walking around seeing if someone would be interested in a trade of some sort. I end up trading three snakes for this guy

And if that weren't enough, about one hour later I am talking to a friend and ask him if he were be willing to take a down payment on a snake. He asks me if I want it and of course I say "yes". So he bags it up, hands it to me and tells me to give him the money when I have it. I only put $25 as a payment on him:rofl: (he is also in shed)

Thanks to all. I'm pretty happy with them.

I was bit a lot yesterday. Three ball pythons, a frog eye gecko, a corn snake, a house gecko... well it at least gave it its all (no anacondas Brad ;) ), and of course I was scratched by a variety of lizards like green iguanas, spiny tail iguanas, water dragons. Always fun.

You are not going to rest till all of BP net is sporting pin-prick tattoos are you? :)

Sadly, I have contemplated picking up a bottle (but only if it is the *real* ink).
