Hi there - I'm new to the forum and to snake keeping in general. I've always been a snake lover but never had one of my own. About a month ago, my daughter asked if she could have a snake, to which the answer 'absolutely' just rolled off my tongue.

We bought a very sweet BP and named him 'Rex'. He's about 4 months old and about 24" long. I'm really enjoying getting to know him and can't believe I never had a snake sooner. We've had cats, dogs, gerbils, hamsters, hermit crabs & anoles... but never a snake.

Here's a picture of him...




Anyway, I'm glad I found this forum. I can tell there's much knowledge here - which is a good thing!
