back in the day

Guess what im going through that right now.But me and my mom made a deal if i get A's and B's i can get a BP morph (pastel):banana:

it took me taking apart my aquarium and reciting some major facts and stuff to win my mom over. She was more like " haha you really don't want a snake!" But I was all " heck yeah I do!" The rest of my family thinks I'm a weirdo... prolly cause I got a snake tounge ring, belly button ring all in one year. I love them and hate them at the same time. They are soooooooooooooooooooo closed minded..

I never asked.. I had been keeping tarantulas for a couple years and I went out and bought a corn snake, she didn't know I had it for a while but she wasn't mad when she found out. I did tell her when I got my next two snakes (ordered both from Kathy Love - another corn and a BP). She was scared the BP would get huge but she didn't stop me. After that I just got them when I wanted, I did the same thing with my gliders.

The only thing I had to work with her on were my cats.. I don't think she cared about the animals that took minimal care and lived in cages, the cats were a little more real to her so they were a little harder to convince her about, but even then if I wanted a cat I would get it that day.

Never had a snake while I lived with my parents so I never had to convince them. If I had to guess I'd say it wouldn't have taken much to convince them. They were always OK with the amphibians I used to keep as a kid.

My dad wanted one too, since he's a huge animal fan especially lizards, my mum on the other hand hates reptiles. I first started out with a Chinese Water Dragon which I kept in my room so my mum never had to see it. After a couple months of owning him, mum asked me if she could handle it, which of course I was over the moon about and pleased she is trying to over come her fears of reptiles. After another month and a half of handling him every other day she finally agrees of letting me get a snake. Went to the pet store where I saw an stunning Mojave, I did ask her if I could borrow a extra £50 (I had to buy the snake and tank) she said no so I settled with an amazing Blood Red Corn snake. Then about two weeks later I bought a Candy Cane.
Two years later I went one a very long, two month holiday to Liberty, Missouri visiting my family. My dad did clean out and feed my Corns and Dragon but got fed up with it, so my mum decided to sell them all. I never gotten the money for it and still haven't properly forgiven her for it.
That's my sad and depressing story. :D

well i went from 2 to 9 i think in a year off topic but im trying to convince my mom to let me get 2 lip piercings like the singer off of disturbed

they look like horns on another note this is my favorite song and my moms not impressed:rockon:

wow..this is like hitting me with a "way back" stick!

I told my mom it (a haitian boa from a friend) followed me home .. :rofl:
I cannot remember WHY she let me keep it but she did. It didn't fly well when it got out and ended up in the laundry basket. I was not allowed to take it out at all.

My parents weere cool with me getting my first BP. However, I picked up another snake at the last expo I went to and when I come home for break they're gonna be in for a big surprise...We'll see how they take it.:rolleyes:

lmfao now THATS funny..

i wasn't into reptiles when I lived w/ my mom, but im sure she wouldn't have cared as she let me have what ever i wanted as long as she didn't have to take care of it.

but when i was with my ex.. thats a different story.. it took months of begging for a gecko.. then months of begging and pleading eyes for a snake. does that count? lol

cool stories
