    Kids and Herps... and a picture

    How many people here allow their kids to handle the reptiles? what age do you feel is appropriate? when should kids get their first reptile that is actually theirs??
    with a 22 month old son i find myself asking these questions and a ton more... i guess what i've found is that he's going at his own pace and i really don't have a lot of say in it! he's already catching bugs and frogs in the yard, he tries to pick up snakes, and knows not to be too rough on them as well.
    here's a picture of him about a month and a half ago with a 3 year old carpet python... what a man!
