Re: How long did you have your first before you got another?
Always had boas growing up..then when my kids got a little bigger i went and got another one.. my 2 year old loved holding him but he was squezzing a little two tight and getting very big...so she was getting nervous and not wanting to hold anymore..and the main reason on getting snakes again was to share my love of snakes with the kids.. so i gave my boa to a friend and learned about ball pythons(BIG MISTAKE)my first ball was a spider in july of 2010 and now i have 8 and the madness has begun...and the kids love them....priceless...very happy dad...not so happy wife...hahahahaha
Re: How long did you have your first before you got another?
every time my mom and I go to the local pet store, I always shoot strait to the herps. The first time she went in she wanted to look at a beta fish for my step-dad. She told me if I brought home another animal she would kill me, she told me this while I was cuddling with one of the hedge hogs. I make a regular visit even if I am not buying feeders every Wednesday before church and then after church on Sundays. They have baby Burmese pythons in there right now and I seem to be the only one that can go in there and pick one out with out getting struck at or bitten. Then I have to go play with the Hedgies ( I love those guys, and again I am about the only one that can reach in and pick them up with out them puffing out to spike me) and then I gotta play with the prairie dogs, and the take out a beardie or two to ride on my shoulder, and then I play with the baby tortises. I will speed two hours in this store every Wednesday and Sunday with my playing with my friends. and this last time I went in to buy feeders, I almost walked out with a baby beardie and the owner was like nope can't let ya, your mom will kill you.
