Male or female owner!

i think 8 out of 10 women get into it from men not to sound sexes. and i think more men breed a more collection than women do.
dont get mad ladies

Hm.. nope.
I disagree, because your statistic was made up on the spot and has no merit or evidence for support.

I'm the one who got myself into reptiles. My best friend got into reptiles by herself as well. And I have met multiple little girls who LOVE reptiles without the influence of boys. (specifically snakes)

In fact, many of my guy friends are afraid of my snakes. Go figure.

No male influence here either! Got into the hobby all on my little girly lonesome

My boyfriend got it from me, though

i voted other since my wife helps out alot with the bp's. she actually bought the geckos, she fell in love with them but she never delt with reptiles until not too long ago. was i bad influence? LOL, i'm only joking. i'm happy that she got used to them and loves them as much as i do.

I got the bug from my daughter and turned my husband on to the hobby.

[Shieny]

Lol, I can't make many girl friends around where I live 'cause there aren't that many that are into reptiles like me.

I am a woman and I completely got into snakes on my own. My boyfriend just kind of started getting into them. He handles the snakes while I clean out enclosures.

Female here, and amongst the number that have been hauling garters in from their backyards since they were fast enough to catch them .
right now my husband just tolerates my obsession, maybe one day I can get him interested to

I'm having some context issues at the moment...

[BeastMaster]

Not mad. But the men in my life are mostly afraid of snakes. I got into the hobby of my own accord.

Well, you may want to reconsider the definition of what a man is. For we fear nothing

Wait!!! I almost forgot about the IRS and loss of cable TV during the playoffs, just ignore my mindless babbling.

FWIW I know plenty of women who got into this without men and some are even breeders. Their husbands are the ones who nag about "the snake room" ( probably because they want a pool table and a big screen where the snakes live )

[BuckeyeBalls]

lol idk any females around where i live that have snakes. So hmm. Maybe their just not so vocal about it Cuz people tend to thinks its weird to own a snake because "it will get big and kill you and your children then what?" I know people are not so intelligent

Edit* That quote came from co workers when they found out i got my son a bp
