figured I would introduce myself..
Im adam, im 15 and live in NC.. I have one snake right now, my amel corn, and *possibly* adopting an abused milk snake over spring break. I dont have any boids,,, yet. Dad wont let me get any more snakes, but I plan on having 20 snakes, including corn snakes, emerald tree boas, milk snake, ball pythons, house snake, red tail boa, eastern indigo, rosy boas, and womas. Maybe when I move out [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img] They have a nice rtb at the local pet shop, but I dont have anywhere to keep him/her right now, plus I dont have a job right now. I think when I get my job back, my dad will let me get some more snakes, but as long as he is payin for the mice, whatever [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img]
thats me \/ (and the \/ is supposed to be a down arrow)
here is a pic of my snake, faroah.
peace
adam

Hi and welcome to RTB!
The best advice that I can give you comes from my personal experience... Don't go hog wild and buy everything that you want all at once. My collection has gotten to exactly the size I want it even though there are a lot of other critters I'd love to own. Just make sure you keep only as many animals as you can take good care of.
-Morti, Like that.

Another thing I plan on doing is getting an average size vivarium set up with nothing in it (no snakes that is) in it so i can drop by the cheapo pet store and save some of those snakes that look miserable.. I hate seeing a nice snake in bad conditions. It would make me feel better just to feed them and get them shedding right, then give them to someone who might care

Hi & Welcome!
Very nice looking guy you have there. Be careful on your wish list, don't get in over your head. I now have 18 and it takes my anywhere from 6-8 hours to feed them all, that's not including spot cleaning, bathing, etc. Just really enjoy the one you have for now, you have a whole wonderful life ahead of you.
(Of course, a few more wouldn't be so bad [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img] )
Enjoy!

Hey, welcome. Careful about those mistreated petstore snakes -- the more you buy, the more they'll carry. Sucks, but that's one battle we aren't going to win that way.
Ditto on everybody's comments re: expanding your collection. Just bear in mind that you only have so much time, and in a few years you'll be in college or working or both -- and your little friends will be with you into your forties. If I didn't have my wife around to keep me rational, I'd probably have a few more than my current three boas, but I'd be wrong to do it. There are those nights you have to wait up because your stupid snake decides to swallow a rat sideways for two hours, the mornings you have to get out the door to work when you discover your friend has taken a giant crap that has to be gotten rid of *now,* and with each new snake come more of these delights. Don't spread yourself too thin. You seem like a smart guy -- you'll know what to do.
Anyhow, nice to meet you.

Hereis the milk snake i was talking about, peublan apricot milk snake, just a baby, hardly a foot long. Not tame, never really held, no heat, no hiding place, no food, nothing. Well, I dont know if she is mine of not, but im getting attached. If they say no I might just have to slip it on a suitcase .... "I swear she must have escaped her little cage!!"
Very pretty snake, jumpy as all. You go to get her, and she jets! Fastest snake i have ever held. Once you get her out, she will get tamed down, but some times she bites (dont hurt, no worries here)

That is a pretty milksnake. I would be careful with the 'sneaking out in a suitcase' comments. Heaven forbid she does escape, you will be blamed. I do hope you get her though, she needs someone to take good care of her.

Hey there dude. Good to have ya on the site.
Hey Eric.....
How many North Carolina folks do we have on here now. You know if we get a few more, maybe we can make a hostile takeover hehe.... Well it was just a thought. Maybe we can be the one state with the most people... What would we win if we were?

Got her a 10 gallon AQ set up. Trying to keep it as cheap as possible. Went to a petshop here, got to give them a compliment, they had very nice snakes, kept everything clean, and everything looked nice. I held a baby carpet python, a 2 foot ball, and a Siberian Husky [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img]
Here are some pics::
This is what she was living in before, a little critter keeper thing..
And here is a pic of her, bad camara/snake about to shed. Very dark colors, she should be very pretty
Thats it
