    I loooooooove it! It's my grandparents that are kinda holding me back from getting my BP, because neither of them want them in the house. Since I live at home, I have to respect that. But, I'm not giving up :D As much as it makes me sound spoiled, there have been very, very few times that Nannie and Papa have truly told me no about something, so I'm hoping they'll cave eventually, lol. Even if they don't, my other half will be moved down soon, and I'll just keep it at his house. That's my last resort, because I'd like it kept at home. Let's hope I can change their mind, too. We also never thought they would allow as many animals that are in the house in that there are now. We're up to 2 inside dogs, an inside cat, a bearded dragon, and 2 hermit crabs. Most of the animals they've allowed in have been dogs, and mostly ALL outside ones. We also had 8, yes 8!, hamsters at one point. Our 2 "girl" hamsters had babies.. :rolleye2: So I'm determined to get my 1 adorable snake, lol.

    My mom's about the same age and she likes to look at the snakes when she's visiting my house. However, she won't hold them, nor will she get close to them. After having a few snakes out during the holiday season, I had put the snakes away and had them away for some time. I walked up to my mom and touched the back of her neck. She jumped and then exclaimed, you made me pee my pants. We all had a big laugh about it and she was cool with it.

    So, congrats on getting mom involved with the snakes. That's no small accomplishment.

    It is cool that your mom is coming around. My mother loves to handle my bp's. When she comes over I have to continually chase her out of my reptile room.
