I wish I would've had the camera on him when he first help a BP. His face lit up and he came alive. Found his pet calling.

Me too. All kids seem to have the disease!

People in my family are allergic to furry animals so I was considering getting a corn snake. While doing research I ended up on the ball python side of YouTube over the winter holidays, and upon seeing a baby pied ball python for the first time (specifically in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N-ne7m6YFtw ) I was instantly in love.

I now have an albino mojave boy that I am very happy with, and I might get a pied in the future once they are available!

I’m in it because I was obsessed with the garter snakes in my yard growing up. I would get bucket fulls of them at my grandfathers campground. Unfortunately my mother was terrified so I never had the chance. So I put a plan in action. Grow up,make money get a house and start a collection,because I’m the man of this house and get what I want...Well I get what I want when my wife lets me. I’m still the man of the house when she’s not here, or when my daughters not here. Well come to think of it. I’m a bank that occasionally gets to spend my own money

Ok this will sound stupid but 2 years ago I had this dream where I had this pet snake that was big and heavy, and I brought it to school. People loved it and I fell in love with it. Since that dream I have been in love with snakes. I have dreamed about owning an OD pied bp (ik that's very specific) since but now I am leaning more towards blood boas as my second snake.

When I was a little kid, I was catching toads, frogs, lizards, salamanders and newts. Then I discovered snakes, much to my Mom’s dismay. My Dad taught me what was safe to catch, and it’s been all downhill from there. I was fascinated by reptiles and amphibians but never allowed to keep any of my captures as pets, and no snakes until I was out on my own. I bought my first snake, a common redtail boa, in 1991 and had him until he passed in 2017. I’ve had a number of different species over the years, but really love the ball python morphs. They’re beautiful, a great size, sweet tempered, not terribly difficult to care for, just all around great snakes....as long as you can deal with the occasional fast.

Since I was a little boy and lived across the street from a Forrest Preserve. Snakes, frogs, turtles, toads and an occasional tortoise. I was definitely hooked.

When I was 11 or 12 I found a brown water snake when I was fishing and from that day on I was hooked. I caught and kept pretty much every indigenous snake and lizard there was in my area. My mother only had one rule and that was that I had to take good care of them. Not so much into lizards now although I do see an ackie in my future once I have more space.
