    Something Weird Just Happened To Me

    Ok Im at home listening to music and all the sudden my sister comes in my room with two cops behind her because apparently my neighbors called the cops on me because I own a snake, Anyway they see my snake and since shes a ball python they just said that I didnt need a permit for her and left. Seriously can my neighbors stop trying to get us in trouble. Has this ever happened to anyone here?

    LOL. I know people that have had issues with their neighbors, not in real life, but on here, and I don't think it was taken like that. Well not normally, as far as your neighbor though, I wouldn't want to give you any bad advice, but if I was in that situation, it would be a living hell for them. It's not hard to make people really regret stuff like that lol. Don't get yourself in trouble though, i'm just rambling on because I hate idiots like that.

    Yeah, dumping a thousand crickets through their mail slot is NOT something you want to think about. Not even for one tiny second. Nope. Just don't. Not a good idea.

    Re: Something Weird Just Happened To Me

    Dude, that sucks. Do you happen to live in Florida? I'm in SW FL and people are getting really freaked out about the pythons here. No one seems to understand that its only the Burmese pythons that cause problems, mostly from people who impulse buy them from pets shops, then dont want them when they get bigger.

    On a side note, I do support having to buy a permit for the larger snakes for the simple reason of preventing uneducated owners. I researched ball pythons for a month before buying one, knowing what I was getting into. I have nothing against someone owning a large snake, as long as the potential owners know how to take care of it and what needs it will require 1, 5, and 10 years down the road. If the states would approach us constructively rather than attacking us with restrictions, Im sure they would get much more cooperation from the retile owning community.

    When I used to keep Burmese pythons I had someone call Child Protetctive Services on me. They said as long as I had locks on the cages they could not tell me I could not have pets.

    Now because she is moving.....The cricket idea at the new house wouldn't be a bad idea. I can see it already......Darn those new neighbors, I should have stayed next to the one with a snake.
