Do you still have your first herp or snake?

I had a few reptiles as a child, and unfortunately I didn't get to keep them.

After I graduated high school, I began to collect reptiles again, and though I don't have my first dragons due to medical conditions, I have others. However, I still have my first snake. My first snake is a 2010 ghost male ball python, named Fear, whom I picked up shortly after I returned from my deployment. He's still going on strong, even if he is a mouser.

My first snake actually belonged to my ex - she still has it but my first BP I ever bought was a group of 5 het. axanthics. I sold 2 immediately and I still have the other three. The females will probably be with me forever though. :D

My first and favorite normal female. She is 1200 grams two years later. http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/12/08/pyzu6use.jpg

first reptile was a green iguana that i had to get rid of back in school cause was always chasing mom's cats from their food bowl. My first snake was a wild caught black rat and she passed away about 4-5 years ago. ( I still have the first rescued snake I got he going over 20 years old at best guess, I received him in late 97 and was full grown then.

My first snake was a normal named Bobba Fett.

He passed away in my hands earlier this year.

He was cremated and is kept in my bedside table, and in a piece of jewelry I wear close.

My first herps were about 50 leopard frog eggs we fetched from our babysitter's inground pool. We got 15 to 20 tadpoles from the eggs, and a lucky 3 survived to adulthood. We released them into the pond on the same property as where we found them, and we found their descendants for years later.

I have my first, second, and third. Wait, I also have my fourth, fifth, (a friend has #6), seventh, eight, ninth, tenth, and eleventh! LOL

My first herp, okay not officially mine(mom's), was a wc blade ball python named blade who years later was bred and eventually we produced little copies of him all of which were sold and one of those babies' babies became the first offical blade ball python. He died a couple years ago.The first herp that was officially mine was a female sulcata tort rescue. I still have her. My official fist snake is my male butter ball python, basilisk(currently only 6mo).

Technically my first herp was a Bearded my friend gave me. I kept him for 4 or 5 months before selling him for my BP, Starvin Marvin- who won't be going anywhere :)

My first was a corn snake that only made it about two weeks. A few months later I got my normal male that has been with me for over 8 years now and is almost 4.5 feet long. These pics were taken this spring:

This is as close as I can get to his true colors. He is VERY light and has great blushing all over:

He is by far my favorite snake and I will never get rid of him.
