    Hello fellow herpers.

    Just thought I'd say hello. I've been keeping reptiles since the early 90's. Over the years I've kept quite a few species. I served eight years in the military, so I ended up getting rid of my collection for a while, due to the constant moving and being deployed. I was finally able to start another collection a few years ago. It was amazing to see how far ball pythons had come since the late 90's, and since I'd always loved the wild caught animals I'd kept previously, it was obvious what I wanted to focus on. I currently have about 60 animals, plus offspring. I primarily do this as a hobby, and I have a separate full time job, so if anyone tries to message me, please don't be offended if it takes me a few days to get back to you. Thanks for reading, and I hope to get to know all of you soon.

    I was in the Navy for seven years. I was honorable discharged back in 2005. Welcome to the site! I am a newbie here as well!

    I am a new bp owner although I have always had lizards. I currently have a beardie. In the past, I had a bicycle lizard (frilled dragon), iguana, frogs, and red-eared slider turtles. I love reptiles.

    Navy, most of my time was spent with squadrons on board carriers, but I spent a little time at Marine advance air fields as well.

    Thanks, I love them too. I'll post some pics up as soon as I'm able to figure out my camera. I do take some pretty bad iPhone pics sometimes, but I want to wait and get some good ones up. Besides ball pythons, I also have a few chondros.
