My husband isn't exactly thrilled with my snakes, but Ive found that getting him involved with them kind of helps. He's named half of my collection and I always ask his opinion on what I'm about to buy. He's also going to be the one who decides which male to put to my het albino girl (I'm leaning towards the calico pastel, but the cinnapin or lesser bee would be nice as well). The best trick to get them to enjoy the snakes more is to NEVER ask them to help clean!
He also acknowledges that as long as I have all these snakes plus my dog, I won't hound him about wanting a baby, so there's that.
