Re: This years' aquisitions

before I may order some new snakes I first have to sell some, all my enclosures are layed out.
I´m sure my wife will give me no further space for further enclosures

My husband gave up fainting long ago... now he just casts suspicious looks around whenever he enters the house because he never knows what new critter lurks... LOL!!

Re: This years' aquisitions

I'm very lucky too. My "boyfriend"..? there has to be a better name for him at my age!...loves my garters, though he does flinch at the idea of me getting anything that grows even 5 ft long or longer. He won't touch them, but is all for me getting more garters. He loves to watch them and doesn't mind helping me build more cages. Who could ask for more?

Re: This years' aquisitions

Actually, my husband has said he kind of enjoys the smaller snakes, it's just that he doesn't want to have to buy food for more than a few.
But someday I'd really like a Pine snake, so I think I'll get one while it's very small, and just 'forget' to tell him they grow to six feet............

Re: This years' aquisitions

Well since all the girls are talking about how their significant other's react to their cold blooded companions....I am very lucky. when I met my boyfriend a year and something months ago when his family came over for our new years party, he knew that his little sister and my brother never let him alone about meeting me... but when he finally met me he was like... holy crap... I am surrounded by a bunch of snakes and this drunk girl is showin' em to me.

he had no idea about anything about a snake!!! the first thing i ever did with him was took him into the snake room and let him hold a snake for the first time ever. He has since really taken a liking to my hobby, he doesn't own any himself but he embraces the fact that I live breath and think snake... all the time. He travels to shows with me and even got me Sledge, my endearing little hognose for V-day.

I have since asked him if he thought I was weird when he first met me for having suc an obsession with snakes. His response was "Well sort of, but I thought you were pretty, then I learned that you were smart and I was very relieved"
