As a kid growing up in SoFl, If I caught it, it was a pet, even baby gators.
grew up, moved on to college, work,marriage, kids.
as kids got older, they started bringing home "pets" that they had "found", baby rabbits squirrels, snakes etc.
Now the kids have been gone from the nest, I have re-ignited my passion for reptiles
I know what you mean about the T's, I plan on only getting 2
