Well, actually it started with a red tailed boa. I used to have TONS of animals when I was younger (at one point I had 24 guinea pigs, 30 lovebirds, 80 betta fish, 3 dogs a horse, a giant rabbit, and 2 pet rats) and when I moved to Arizona I had to give up all of my pets except for 6 birds. The birds eventually all found new homes after a couple years of living here as I had to move to an apartment that allowed no pets. Then I moved to another apartment that did allow pets (err..well...dogs) and I adopted a dog. Then I was in Petco one day and our local herp association was having an adoption day and I fell in love with a little 3' red tail. I built him a HUGE custom cage and had him for about a year and a half until one day the apartments got a new maintenence man who told on me

Anyway, while I had him though I started researching other snakes and fell in LOVE with pied ball pythons. (back when they were about 4 grand lol)... I was bound and determined to own and/or breed them one day. So time went by and I finally bought a house and a year later I decided it was about time for me to get a new hobby...what hobby did I get into? Ball pythons of course!

I still don't have my pied yet, but maybe next year
