Hey by way of introduction, I am Sandy_01's S.O., ok I know ... what is an S.O? "Significant Other." We are too old to call ourselves "Boy" and "Girl" friends. LOL! Anyhoo ... the "Snake Thing" was always hers, but the little buggers have grown on me. "Buddy"; the lesser Ball Python picked me. I didn't pick him, but I am glad he did! He is good looking boy and is always looking for his "Rat King" (that would be me, by-the-way). I saw "Cory" the Corn Snake at the Columbia, S.C. Repticon. I was just blown away by his marking and color. When I first held him he went right for my armpit! So I guess that is snake love at its finest. I am looking forward to sharing and learning more about my snakes.
