Getting back into the hobby after a 10 year hiatus. My ex-wife forced me to rehome my modest collection, but now I'm a free man. I grew up in southern Oregon and north California, until I moved to north Idaho at age 16, 33 now. Not much to find here besides painted turtles and garter snakes, unfortunately. I've been searching for a rubber boa without success for 2 years. Other than local wildlife, I've kept ball pythons and one very grumpy corn snake. I believe I'm at an intermediate skill level, so I'm looking into Amazon tree boas to kick off my reentry into snake keeping. I'm about 1/2 done with my first terrarium build, which is sized appropriately for an arboreal. Or, I just make make it into the ultimate luxury ball python mansion. Arboreals definitely have the cool factor, but there's just something about a ball python contently coiled up in your lap while you watch TV, that makes them so appealing.
