lol i also force my hubby and kids to go to all the reptile shows and store around here. well, the kids love it. hubby is starting to come around. he was holding my female pastel the other day and i caught him talking to her... then proceeded to tell me he thinks she likes him because he is holding her alot more lately.

My husband was kinda stand offish at first, but now he even calls one of them his own. He even offers to walk to the pet store to get feeders.. Aww :)

Technically mine was 0 seconds, I bought 2 on my first transaction... but one was a gift for my GF.

Hers turned out to be cool, mine turned out to be a butthead, yet I still keep buying more. Welcome to the addiction eh?

I dont quite remember when I got my second, but I got my first I think it was July of last year, and now I have 14, hopefully soon 15....

My first snake was my mystic male!

A little over a year :P

3 weeks, well I put the deposit down on him. I get to pick him up Monday :D

My first snake in July. Second one in August. Third at the beginning of this month.

I can't seem to help it... please help >_<

About a month lol.

Here's what happens a lot I think...

You get a snake as a pet and after the purchase you hit the web to make sure you're providing the best care possible. You find a website like this and you're like WHOA... A WHOLE WORLD OF BALL PYTHON MORPHS

Then you read about racks and you're like WHOA I COULD KEEP 10 SNAKES IN THE SPACE I KEEP 1

Since they eat so infrequently and are generally low maintenance you're like I COULD CARE FOR MORE, YEAH

Then you see the insane morph combos that are outside your price range ME LIKEY, ME WANT

Then it clicks. You could BREED YOUR OWN. THE INNER SCIENTIST IN US ALL IS TINGLINGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG



It's all downhill from there...

Got my son one for his birthday Monday. I am looking for more RIGHT now!, I think they are like Potato Chips.... No one can have just ONE!

I was paying for my second one before I'd gotten my first. :rolleye2: In the 30s now (not counting hatchlings for sale)...

i went from one ball het. for piedbald (it was the same price as a normal lol ) to 4.2 balls and 3.2 boas in less than a year

lol I received 2 at once ( and the 1 ones I purchased weer like month apart as I they were het pieds and back then they cost was about 800 bucks for a pair took me entire summer to save up. but I went from 1 pair to like 30 snakes within a 3 year period ( bewteen the rescues I aquired off craigslsit and such.

About 3 months

Knowing that i wanted to breed i waited a while, that and because i am a college student i wanted to ensure that i had the funds to take care of the animals. I would never purchase a bulk amount of reptiles and think that everything would work out! I'm always doing my research and homework on breeding and care and hopefully next season i will be starting up!

So i am pretty sure i waited about 2 years! I'm not in a rush to have a huge collection fast. But i am sure over the years it will grow!

I bought my first ball last January, then March I bought a bearded dragon, and just a month ago I bought a bumble bee ball. Can't have just one reptile :)

We bought our first BP in July and I bought a Jungle Carpet python in August (we actually get her next week).

Ok so im not crazy lol!! its just an addiction i want more!!! the first week i bought mine my mom was like eweee i hate snakes, then the third week she wanted to hold her and she talked to her :taz: yesterday i got her out of the house for the first time and she handle it very good :D

I got my first one ten years ago but sold it when i moved to new York three years later and bought another one last September and and then another less than a month later and now i have ten and one gravid lol so i bought ten in a year

I planned ahead, and when I got my first I bought a pair :P kicking myself now for not getting two females, but I love my little mojave male to death

Almost 3 years!!!

Precisely :D

It started when I was little and my parents let me keep any garter snakes I caught as long as I could feed them. 😁My parents let me have tons of cool pets growing up but not too many at a go. Then once I grew up an moved out had to wait till I bought a trailer house till I could get reptiles again. So a year and a half ago I got my first snake a normal girl (I think) then month and a half after I got a Leo but sadly he fell from top of his cage onto rock water bowl and died :( and now a year an half after getting my ball I've got a new carpet python. Totally addicted to herps but trying to stay sane about it lol isn't to easy a thing to do

I got my 1st on May this year, my 2nd in July and then I just got 2 more this month for my bday, so I'm up to 4 in about 4 - 4 1/2 months lol

I got my first and 2nd at the same time. :) then took me

I bought my first two as a pair this summer and it was too hot to ship them. So while waiting for it to cool off some, I accidentally went to a reptile show and accidentally bought another that I could have at home and play with and then while still waiting for it to cool off some, I ordered another that came from the north and they were able to ship. I ended up driving 14 hours (one way) to pick my first two up just because I wanted them at home. I may be insane but I love my babies :D

7 months before I got my 3rd 4th 5th 6th 7th 8th and 9th within the last month :)

I have another one coming next month :banana:

Yup...that's pretty much how it went.

For me it was 3 months. :)

I want to get another but i want it to be a morph with pinstripe, spider, calico, lesser/butter something in that type

Took me three months then snowballed after that lol

About a month and a half. But for my second snake I went with a boa.

one week, my daughter wanted a snake so I got her a ball and then I decided I wanted to get myself a boa and knew I would have better luck with the wife if I broke the news of two snakes at once than one before the other :)

zero seconds. I got a pair :gj:
