Since I knew very little myself, we eventually had to admit we were in over our heads, and rehomed both of our rescues.

Then a few years later, he decided that the ideal gift to me would be the Pied ball I'd always wanted. Of course, they were waaaayy out of our price range, but he was thoughtful enough to contact a breeder on his own from his work, find out some much needed information, and purchase me a pair of 100% het pieds.

So, I jumped online to find out everything I could about how to care for them. It didn't take me long to find this place, and there was no going back. I went from my original pair to 18 snakes in less than 2 years. Hubby has been nothing but supportive of my addiction, and eventually got interested enough to get one of his own. Which rapidly turned in to two, then three and now four. He has his own breeding projects now, and we both enjoy the time we spend at reptile shows and on morph websites.

He has also been very supportive and tolerant of my mouse breeding colonies, and took the bull by the horns and started his own ASF colony. So, even though my support is from the other side of the coin, it still makes me happy to know how much he loves me and cares about what makes me happy.

Wow. What an awesome story Gale. Sounds like you two have quite a thing going. I might be on your heels. My girlfriend went from scared, to helping, to part owner, to OWNER in about a year. We just celebrated our first year dating anniversary yesterday Thanks for sharing.
