    That was my plan, until I made the mistake of telling everyone the breeder's chosen name for my first BP. I was considering naming her Persephone, but once I had introduced her to people as "Donuts", it stuck! Maybe another species will take the Olympian route

    LOL! i named one of the first snakes I owned Persephone. she was a Cal king. I gave up on real names a long time ago. now I name them clever things like BPF17 (Ball Python Female # 17)

    My clown female's name is Persephone


    I'm a massage therapist. I work in a small multi-disciplinary clinic with chiropractors and acupuncturists. All my co-workers and some of my patients know everything about my slither-babies. In fact, one of the other massage therapists and I got on the conversation of snakes two years ago and realized we'd both always wanted one. We egged each other on to get one. I got my BP first, then he got his shortly thereafter. We're now growing our personal collections, while starting to get into a few hobby breeding projects together. Our co-workers are quite used to our constant snake talk
