    Do you name your BPs?

    I know that many big breeders probably don't, out of sheer exhaustion maybe, but do you? All of mine have names, and I think I plan on naming all future ones I get..
    It is pretty different from the worlds of horse and dog breeding, where the animals have registered names.. that would be something to look into!

    Re: Do you name your BPs?

    Every pet in our house has a name. Even when we have an extra rat or mouse from feeding it's put in a cage treated like a king until next feeding day. We tend to call them things like "left-overs" or "slinky's dinner" tho crude but it lets our kids know that yes it will be fed off.

    Re: Do you name your BPs?

    yea


    but sometimes it's somethig that sticks when you can't think of a name .... had a cat named Kitty, couldn't think of a name so we called him kitty & it stuck

    I call everything buddy or missy (if I know it's a girl) .... my male snake will probably end up being named buddy

    It doesn't matter what you name them, they don't come when you call.

    Re: Do you name your BPs?

    All of my snakes have a name.. however only a couple of my inverts do, and even three of my birds don't have names.. lol.

    I love naming the snakes though.
