    Waynesville, NC.

    I've moved like 3 times now in the past 2 years....I was living in Leicester about 2 years ago. It's out in the middle of nowhere, about 45 minutes away from Asheville and right on the border of Madison County. Then I moved to my grandfather's house in Waynesville. Had a lovely run in with an animal control officer awhile back about a supposed constrictor ordinance here. Told her I'd already looked into the laws and saw no such thing. I even went to the Town House a few days later and told them up-front that I wanted any laws on animals pet or not, but specifically on constrictors. They told me that no ordinance had been passed and they gave me a two page paper on all the animal ordinances. Now, there is an ordinance on constrictors in Waynesville COUNTY, Missouri. I live in an apartment with my mother now, not far away from my grandfather's house. Let me just say, moving the boa's 6ft enclosure in the rain was fun. lol Hopefully next time I can get a U-Haul or something.

    Anyways, I keep what's in my signature. A boa constrictor, a ball python, and a checkered garter. I'm hoping to diversify my collection a little more by adding a retic (or Burm if they get off the Lacey Act), blood python, and a carpet python before I get any more individuals of the same species. It all depends on the room I have and the budget I'm on, and what other species tease me. >.> Probably won't be another few years on that, though. I'm still a ways away from Asheville, but I hear there's a good herp vet out there, and there's a decent one here that can do any small-scale care and at least patch anyone up enough to make the drive to Asheville.

    I tried coming to the last Charlotte show, but had to spend all my money on CHE set ups and another thermostat. :/ Trying *again* for this year, though. Sorry for the lengthy greeting, it's nice to meet everyone. :)

    Goldsboro, NC here! I have 9 juvenile ball pythons. The first one I bought was last year; a male normal as a birthday gift for myself. I drove to Kernersville, NC (about a 2 hour trip) to pick him up from NC Reptiles/Carolina Reptiles. After a few weeks, my fiance wanted one of his own so he purchased online from Reptiles by Mack, a female pastel. And so the addiction grew, lol. We went back to Kernersville and picked up 1.1 Mojave, 1.0 Albino, and 1.0 Pastel. Then the fiance won a Ben Siegel facebook auction for a female spider. Our last two we picked up at Repticon Raleigh in February; a 100% Het Albino female from Primeval Beauty and a female Black Pastel from Suffolk Selects. All are happy, healthy, and growing! Definitely have some breeding projects in mind when the time comes. So excited!

    I used to get mine from a Reptile place just down the road from Carolina pave mall. I think the place was technically in sc. But 5-10 minutes down the road from the mall
