I have been interested in snakes scince I was three years old. Now I am sixteen and with out a snake. owning a snake has not been realistic as to where to put it and care (I only new the different kinds not what they need to live) but scince we've moved I have room and have researched basic snake care as well as specific species. My problems are as follows:
1) I want my parents to pay
2) My mom keeps saying no
3) I don't now if I want a California King snake, a bp, or if given a opprotunity an emeral tree boa (I know etb's are out of the question but at some point would be fun to have) I have researched these alot.
My mom says she doesn't want a snake. I keep telling my mom she should learn about snakes so that they aren't as scary. Then I get to the feeding part. I tell her that she doesn't have to feed them. And here is where I am stuck "I don't want rats or mice or whatever it is they eat in my house" lol. My dad would be like well who would pay for it and well you owe us some money for that bass amp why should we lend more money to you. So I don't bother asking my dad for any thing. You guys are smart help me think of a way to get this snake asap.
