I didnt sleep hardly any the first night I brought mine home. I keep the tank in my bedroom so I would constantly roll over to see if he or she ( not really sure not been sexed lol ) was out or not. I kept reading on the site how addictive herping can be but I told myself I will just get a snake and be done. I now have a ball python, leopard gecko, and fire-bellied toads. My bedroom looks like the reptile section of a zoo. The problem is that I really didnt have the money to buy them but hey thats what college financial aid is for anyway!!! Who needs books? It is only college and my future I dont need to study I have a snake lol. Actually they are college related because I am studying to be a high school biology teacher and plan on keeping these species in my future classroom for students to observe the different behaviors and interact with them.
