Or waiting for Fedex to deliver your latest snake. Enjoy yourself.:)

Right. I'm happy because a FedEx delivery is set for Wednesday but distraught at the same time because there are no reptile shows around here for weeks.

Hey if you find Counseling for this let me know. I got 16 Bps just last year and 4 more so far this year lol. Crazy addicting!!:cool: Once these come out of quarantine i will have to build another rack lol!! Be careful it can take over!! :P

They're like Pokémon...gotta catch them all.

Or corn chips. Can't have just one.

Get a good handle on the animals you currently have. Work on making their enclosures as nice as possible. Once your husbandry is precisely dialed in, and you've got your feeding and cleaning procedures down pat, then you can decide if you want more animals. Do lots of advance research and figure out which animals you want to work with most. Just know that there's ALWAYS the next great must have critter and there's temptation everywhere. Other than that just kick back, relax, and enjoy the show. :D

My latest bit of fun money went into upgrades, which means I have adequate extra equipment for that future fourth addition. The cornsnake's enclosure will have better sized magnetic ledges (he spends most of his time perched), and (finally) be bio-active. (Costs a chunk of change to get adequate drainage material and substrate to cover a 36"X18" to the proper depths.) REALLY wanted to purchase another Exo Terra viv, but couldn't work that into the current budget.

Anyway...enjoy the ride!

That corn is beautiful, is it an extreme reverse okeetee, it looks a lot like my corn girl and that is what she is. I know about the addiction. I started with my corn girl, then a BP boy, now i just got a BP girl. If it wasn't for the fact i am out of room, i'd have more. Well i could always kick the grown kids out.

I think he is beautiful too, thank you and if I were you I would seriously consider kicking the grown children out to make room for more snakes. jk lol

Update. A new 10 gallon setup for corny because he is so small, 15g. Corny will go to the 10 gallon from the 20 long and I'm now in discussions with inland reptiles for a youngster male carpet python to fill the vacated 20 gallon long. Just ordered a herpstat 4. I have a 120-150 gallon (not sure which) aquarium for the CP when he is bigger. Told you I'm out of control.
latest arrival, Corny:
