Hello, newbie to the forum

Hello all, I have been a lurker here for quite some time finally got around to registering. I have had my BP for a few months now and he is doing well just bumped him up to a 40 gallon breeder tank even though he is by his lonesome. He is a hair under 3 feet long real good girth and about 2 years old. His name is Bob I know kinda silly name for a snake but that was his name when i got him so it kinda stuck. Since I moved Bob to his new 40 gallon I had a spare 20 Gallon and just couldn't help myself I went and got a baby Cali King bananna flavored lol, and since I don't know if he is a boy or girl I went with the androgenous name of Nanners. I am going to try to be on here more often as I am still relatively new to the herp world.

Welcome and let's see some pictures!

I would love to post some pic's just as soon as I find that darn digital camera tree lol. :lol: I do have a friend that I may ask to borrow theirs.

Welcome aboard! Glad to have you, Bob and Nanners here. :) Now that is one original name. :lol: Once you get pics, I know I would love to see them. :)

Welcome to the forums MacWin (A.K.A. BIGMAC LOL)

Lookin forward to seein Bob and Nanners! Get one more snake and you can call it Banners. :D

Well I thought my first post would be to hi-jack my husbands post and introduce my self. I actually got Bob for my husband for Christmas. I bought him from a friend of mine. I couldn't stand snakes, loathed it when my husband and kids had to go into the herpeterium first thing when we got to the Zoo. Snakes gave me the "willies" also told my hubby no snakes never in my house. Well long story short I can't wait to get my own snake. I am absolutly attached to Bob and well little Nanners still scares me a bit in the fact that he is so little and very squirmy. Bob is most likely going to shed this week so we will most likely get some pics done soon.

Also snake phobia has been handed down for generations in my family, but it has stopped with me and my husband because our kids love snakes.

Welcome to the forum MrsMacWin!

That's awesome how you got your hubby a snake despite your aversion to them...and see where it's gotten you? LOL Addicted like the rest of us! :mrgreen:

I'd be afraid of a little snake like that, too. Not afraid for myself, but afraid that he might get away or fall or get hurt in some other way because he's so small and squirmy. What sort of snake do you want to get as your own?

Welcome to the site, BigMac. :D

I am not sure yet but I do think that the blood pythons are beautiful. We have talked about getting Bob a girlfriend and when they are old enough maybe breeding. Just an idea but that will be few years from now. My daughter is also wanting her own snake so we will have to wait and see what happens. Snakes are not a cheap addiction.

I am afraid of that little squirmy thing just for the reasons you stated I would drop him, he would move so fast and I would loose him. I can't wait until he is a little bigger, he is adorable. I guess I have forgiven my husband for buying the little stinker without telling me about it first.

Welcome...Welcome :D

Welcome; you'll find that the people on this site are very helpful and great people in general.
