    My first ball python was a normal. My second was an albino. The week after I bought a spider, and it continued to progress from there.

    Oh yeah, my husband played this trick on me. "Snakes aren't so bad, look, hold one - see, you like it! Cute snek! U luv snek!"

    "Okay, yes, I luv snek." We get snek.

    "Honey, look at all these other sneks!"

    "Wow, pretty sneks!" "Can we get..."

    And now I don't even want to tell you how many sneks and how much snek paraphernalia is in our house. I never imagined this kind of rabbit hole. I'm not even mad, but dang.

    BF tried to sit me down on this one last night. "I know you want to get a snake." I just looked at him blankly. I said, "no," and changed the subject. Wasn't really lying...."A" snake???

    I have a list of nine various species I'm interested in. I read, and take notes, and check who the best breeders would be for each. Hardly saying I'd get them all right away, or even most within the next few years, but this is hardly a one-off.

    "A" snake??? That might be worse than none.

    I know the feeling.

    I saved up for 6 months to get 2 of my girls nice enclosures. I ordered them along with all of the hardware and accessories. Now I'm living on cereal and noodles.

    So this weekend a Repticon show turns up the closest ever to me yet, just 2 hrs away. It took every bit of will power in me to stay away. I know if I went that I would buy no telling what, on a credit card nonetheless!

    Then a pair of gorgeous Coastal Carpets show up on CL yesterday that I can't get out of my head. I have almost forgotten about a cool Jaguar Carpet from last week. Carpets just never show up in my area on CL, so this makes it even harder.

    So Yes, I understand how it is being an addict!
    The one thing I found that you can count on about Balls is that they are consistent about their inconsistentcy.

    1.2 Coastal Carpet Pythons
    Mack The Knife, 2013
    Lizzy, 2010
    Etta, 2013
    1.1 Jungle Carpet Pythons
    Esmarelda , 2014
    Sundance, 2012
    2.0 Common BI Boas, Punch, 2005; Butch, age?
    0.1 Normal Ball Python, Elvira, 2001
    0.1 Olive (Aussie) Python, Olivia, 2017

    Please excuse the spelling in my posts. Auto-Correct is my worst enema.

    It is easier to ask for forgiveness than for permission!

    What's 1 more?? Just do it LOL!
