I couldn't find a thread for all the folks who are coming out of the woodwork from my area, so I decided to make one! I specifically want to find breeders and hobbyists in the area, as a friend of mine is enthusiastic about getting a BP once she heard that I have one and that they're fairly simple to care for. I plan to get her set up with proper husbandry techniques before she even picks up her snake, so that she's well-educated and doesn't go in blind the way I did. (I'm also going to avoid taking her to Petco for her first baby, because as much as I love my pet store brat, I would have liked to purchase from a breeder had I known better.)

So c'mon you guys, I know you exist, because I've PMed with several of you now. :3 Crystal, Pyrate, Mike I think you're kinda local if I'm not mistaken, and a few others!

(Feel free to make this thread not just about reptiles either, mostly a community space for us to chat as a group and maybe plan meetups at local shows.)
