This is a bit of an abstract question, so please bear with me. It's something that's very important to me, as a prospective owner/enthusiast.

Coming from a history of pets, dominated by dogs, I know that "dog people" have our own unique lifestyles and subcultures- particularly specific to our breeds of choice. There's also a certain level of endearing "craziness," for lack of a better term, within the serious dog enthusiast community.

I'm very interested in knowing how, or if, any of this translates into the world of snakes and BPs. So, to be more direct: Would you say that there's a lifestyle and culture, unique to BP owners? If so, what does that look like to you? In general, would you say the community of BP enthusiasts is tight and supportive or are there any major Achilles Heels within it?

On a smaller scale, in regard to lifestyle, how has yours changed since you've acquired your first BP? How much time do you spend enjoying your BP(s) hands on vs. admiring from afar? Is your BP ownership a characteristic you find yourself using to describe yourself to others?
