My story really started in 3rd grade when we had a "snake guy" come to school and I held my first snake. Then when I was about 15 I came home from school and the neighbor kids had a Prairie Kingsnake that they had caught in a jar! I knew I had to save him from them so I bought a cage, named the little one fluffy and took him with me everywhere! He managed to escape though and for my 16th birthday my dad bought me a small ball python, but it died within a week. We took him back to the pet store and traded him for an adult rescue that I named Spike. I had him til I was 24 when he passed away. I'm not sure how old he was at the time.
Then, for Valentines day this year my boyfriend surprised me with a baby normal ball!!! He wasn't much of a snake guy but knew how much I loved them and now, well he's obsessed like I am!! We have Chumley, our normal unsexed, Stewie, a gorgeous Mojo male and a pastel female that will be arriving Wednesday!! We also have a RTB, Oswald Cobblepot, who is a cranky little sucker!!
