    Re: Stop giving snakes names?

    I stopped making it a major habbit after I would say.. 5 snakes? I still name some of them, if I pick up or hatch something new and its so awesome that I feel it needs a sweet name, then I name it :]

    I treat them as pets, so they get names.

    Re: Stop giving snakes names?

    I'm only at two now, and they both have or will have names...

    Actually, the new addition is currently being named by the girlfriend, a tactic I am trying out (so far with great success) in order to make her accept another snake!

    Re: Stop giving snakes names?

    I name them all. It is easier for me to keep track of them by name instead of by number.

    Re: Stop giving snakes names?

    I got a red-eared slider when I was seven and named him Spike. That is the first and last reptile I have ever named.

    I would name them, but they never come when I call, so I stopped.

    That is unless bp06f1003 is considered a name....

    Yeah, this. Also, half the fun of getting a new animal for me is giving it some ridiculous, slightly embarrassing name. Like Melvin. Or Noodle.
