Wait...my girlfriend wants WHAT?!?!!?!?!?!?!?

So the other day while my hognose, Cosmo, was out with me my girlfriend said something along the lines of "I still can't believe I think a snake is sooo cute. I think I want a hognose of my own." I almost dropped Cosmo I was so surprised!!!
She went on to ask "are there pink hognose?" Well, as a matter of fact...so we look at some different hognose morphs and I think she actually wants "her own" snake. So basically, I may be getting another little hognose that will be "hers". She'll name him/her and I'll care for and feed the new addition!!!

Time will tell, but I'm stoked she even thought about it!! Just a few years ago she was afraid of snakes!!
Now, she's cool with all of mine and possibly wants to add another...fingers crossed!!

that's so awesome to hear she's becoming an enthusiast!!! even if it won't actually be "hers," that's a step in the right direction! everyone caves eventually...

Yeah, she's been supportive from the first day I was allowed ONE snake. Now the fact that she actually appreciates and admires them is awesome. I definitely have one of the good ones

Yup!! Cosmo is the only one she's truly comfortable with, and the only one she'll actually take out of the enclosure. Granted she's only grabbed him twice, but hey, gotta crawl before you walk.
I'm super stoked she's grown to really respect what awesome animals snakes actually are. She's come a LONG way.

DON't DO IT IT'S A TRAP! That is how I ended up with a GTP. My husband wanted one and now I am taking care of it

Better put a ring on that one, she sounds like a keeper.

That's very cool, still working on that with my husband of 14 years but Hognose are too ugly, BP are too big , he likes the Honduran Milksnakes though.

Hahahahaha!!! I'm perfectly fine taking care of another snake. Especially one with such easy husbandry requirements!

Hognose are ugly?!?!?
BPs are big??? I must have missed that memo, hahahaha. I guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder and size is relative. Plus, it would be a boring world if we all like the same thing.
