Hello, my name is Butterball Python, and I have a confession to make. I have a reptile addiction.

I see an especially nice reptile out there, and something just takes over. Yesterday I read a thread on this board about Morphmarket, so, of course, that had to be checked out. There was this lovely champagne female ball python on there...I don't need a second snake, but she's oh so pretty...I e-mailed and she's available. My butter male is the result of a nuclear champagne x normal cross, and there just happened to be a really pretty picture of a butter champagne that could result from such a pairing on the morph calculator. The pet store just happened to have heat mats on sale...Wally World just happened to have a plastic tub the right size...and my fingers just happened to type an I want her e-mail back to the seller. I will be really disappointed if someone else gets her first. There's a large room in the house dedicated just to geckos...I spend a large part of my time cleaning up after and caring for them, and more time on reptile boards...and now ball pythons, too...I need a 12 step program but don't really want one.

You can probably relate.
