I just started in October! Me and my girlfriend walked into petsmart looking for butterflies for her and i stopped to look at the reptiles. I saw a ball python and wanted to buy on impulse immeditaley! The sales lady then gave me some info sheets and pointed out to me what i needed. I thouht to myself... This is going to be more then just taking home a pet. Im the kind of guy that likes to research and always looking to learn new things! So i did just that! Found this forum and super useful informatiom that is just pure fun to read! Picked up my first BP the week of thanksgiving and ive been in love with this new hobby!![]()
When i first told my girlfriend her reaction was "NO!!!, eww! Never in my house!, dont get me near that thing!" now my girlfriend holds and plays with him and thinks hes cute haha.
Now im always looking for local reptile stores and always cruising by to take a look at everything!
