Congrats on the beautiful new critters T. Like others have said it can be a very addictive hobby and there are a lot of fellow herpaholics on this forum. I have 7 snakes and that's my sweet spot. It's fun, exciting, and not too much work. My only advice to new keepers is to pace yourself and recognize your limits. Don't get too caught up in the rush. Get a good handle on the animals you currently have. Work on making their enclosures as nice as possible. Once your husbandry is precisely dialed in, and you've got your feeding and cleaning procedures down pat, then you can decide if you want more animals. Do lots of advance research and figure out which animals you want to work with most. Just know that there's ALWAYS the next great must have critter and there's temptation everywhere. Other than that just kick back, relax, and enjoy the show.
