Re: Acquired Over Your 1st Year?
Bought my first which was my Normal girl and then a couple of months later bought my Albino boy. Year after that bought three more.
Probably will buy one more girl and call it a day. I might also have one or two holdbacks once I start breeding so I'll probably end up with more. 8 is my max for sure.

I got my first snake/reptile in 2006, Bud, and I still have him. It wasn't until about 5 years later, and 3 years ago, that I started thinking about getting another snake and got Cloud. After that I was hooked, and although I couldn't get any more at the time I've been hanging around on forums and such researching various animals since then. Then, last August I got my checkered garter Draco when I was offered a baby eastern garter by an e-friend. She's been raising him up a bit for me until he was on whole pinkies, and hopefully he'll be coming in soon. Whenever she can get together the supplies and ship him off. I don't think I'll be able to get anymore for awhile after that, though.
8.3 Boa imperator ('15 sunglow "Nymeria," '11 normal "Cloud," '16 anery motley "Crona," '10 ghost "Howl," '08 jungle "Dominika," '22 RC pastel hypo jungle "Aleister," '22 pastel normal "Gengar," '22 orangasm hypo "Daemon," '22 poss jungle "Jinzo," '22 poss jungle "Calcifer," '22 motley "Guin")
