College Students With Reptiles Thread

[JoRandom]

Haha. I'm not technically suppose to have pets in my apartment either but I talked with the area manager and he said it would be fine. I just lock my bedroom door when maintenance comes around so they leave him alone.

Your only a bit away from me!!

I go to Shenandoah University in Winchester, VA!!

Oh and finishing up a second B.S. in Public Health and getting some grad school/med school pre-reqs dealt with.

Yes! SU is about 20 mins from my hometown, and I visit winchester frequently to shop, etc

where do you go in that area for reptiles/reptile supplies?

I am a senior at Flagler College - Tallahassee studying Business Management. I currently have (including animals that I am making payments on) 11.31 ball pythons, 1.4 BCI (red tail boas morphs), 2.3.5 crested geckos, a cat, and a 6 month old Pembroke Welsh Corgi.

I wouldn't be able to do it if it weren't for my boyfriend helping out! School is getting kinda crazy right now, and he helps out so, so much.

Winchester pet aquarium...slightly more $ than petco/petsmart...but more expertise in animals and more exotics...and the "reptile guy" there named Zach can get ya pretty much anything you want or are looking for....honestly though I only use them for food animals and basic supplies...most of the reptiles I buy are online from well known breeders or at reptile shows...most big supplies are all from reptilebasics.com...cages are all Animal Plastics.

Graduated from Univ of Texas with economics, came back to school at Texas Tech for petroleum engineering and will graduate in May. I started with a cali kingsnake at UT, was up to 18 bps last year, but decided to downsize to only my pied project until I graduate due to housing arrangements changing yearly. I now have only 2 bps and a boston terrier/english bulldog mix, but plan to get a couple more snakes this season!

Interesting thread!

Finishing my PhD in Mechanical Engineering this June at the University of Washington (GO HUSKIES!). I guess I'm still considered a college "student", but haven't taken classes for nearly 4 years now I have 20-30 BPs.

Final year at Towson University near Baltimore (THE WIRE) studying journalism and currently writing about the Orioles for Barstoolsports. I have a normal bp, pastel, and recently got a western hognose. I love the hogs and am looking to purchase more soon. If anyone lives near the area and knows of any good breeders or pet stores around let me know!
