Hello! I'm new to the world of Herp, my husband has made a convert of me - we've just acquired our first snake (he assures me it will not be our last, so I've already laid down a few ground rules on how big and how friendy... how many is still up for discussion.

We just acquired our first snake, a Super Pastel BP (M), and I have not named him yet... I also don't have a good picture, because he was friendly at the shop, but he's been a real shybe since we got home (which I understand is normal, we're not bothering him until it's feed-time so he can get used to the new environment). I'm also helping my husband build an enclosure for a Carpet Python, he had his heart set on one of those first, but had to warm me up to the idea of owning a snake... which he did a little too well, so we got "mine" first!

The rest of the family is comprised of the 4-legged variety: a Husky and a German Shepherd - he's 7 yrs and the chillest buddy ever, she's 6 months and I don't know where she gets all her energy, but she's sweet and is learning how not to be a terror. The 4-legged and 0-legged "kids" will never mingle. ;)

I've been lurking for a couple days, but figured I may as well say hello now that I've officially adopted into the club. Lurking is my general forum M.O, but I'll contribute if/when I feel like I've got something worth contributing. :)

Cheers!
