Hey everyone!
Continuing on with my research today I went visited a nearby petstore to go check out the snakes. I really wanted all the information the associates could throw at me so I spent a significant time there pestering each associate and handling my snake friends.

First one was a Ball Python who was awesome. He made me want one as of that moment but unfortunately can't own one until I move out.(Not my rules) He was chilling and just hang out. No fear of me or anyone walking by. After about 20 minutes I put him back.

The reptile guy came in and I pestered him for about 15 minutes before asking to handle another individual snake. He said Corn Snake as everyone else I talked to mentioned as a perfect starter snake. He took out a reddish colored A something rather corn snake. I forgot the name. OOps. Anywho he was very squirelly at first kind of just checking everything out. After about 10 minutes he just chilled out while I chatted with the associate(an older guy). He talked about their requirements, and told me about his business and where he got them, etc.

Funny story here: It was probably getting to be a bit of a long time with handling him so nature obviously took it's course and HE PEED ON ME!! LOL. I actually just sort of laughed at it and was like "Well that's to be expected!" I just gave the associate back the snake and he gave me some paper towels to wipe it off. This happened right as two people were walking by. They smirked and laughed a little. I really wasn't turned off. I had been handling him for a while so I guess he just needed to go!

Anwhosm my first snake will likely be a corn, but a Ball Python is 2nd on my list. I'm still researching and doing all my homework. It'll be 3-4 months before I get one.

So thats my story. LOL. Funny snake!! Had to go and just let it loose. :eek:
