Default Getting new snakeys

At present i have a aurora house snake and a milky and i enjoy them greatly. The house snake i got last year and hes a pleasure to own. Find it very rewarding to learn about them and watch them and their personalities. They each have their own quirks.

Ive wanted a royal for a number of years but due to their history of being a little bit delicate in terms of stress, feeding, etc i felt it was best for me to own snake(s) for a while to make sure i was confortable with the reposnsability. Ive now decided to leap ahead and get on with it. Ive got housing sorted, been reading up, looking. Also looking to get another aurora or maybe a garter. I love small snakes, royals are the exception to my rule. Just beatifull really and got to the strings of my heart.

This years reptile show is going to be a very dangerous experience for my bank account.:wink:

Yup. I was going to wait until the maidstone show to get one but it seems i may be getting one a lot earlier than that now as one has become available. Just need to sort out how im going to go get it as im a bit imobile at present and on crutches. Luckily its only next town from me so all is good in the world.

Who knows.. may get a second one at the show.LOL My wish list is a royal first, aurora second, garter third and maybe a Cali king for my OH. He likes those but hes just not involved in caring for them. Im the one who cleans, handles, feeds. he has visitation rights. :P

Well it was gone midnight last night so i was a bit off my head on sleep deprivation and a few too many coffees. A friend has just left from dropping me off a few more snakey supplies and indulging in a rather large cheesecake. :P

Quick question while im at it, how long is Honey? I have a choice of 2 brand new RUB's in diferent sizes and just want to make sure that i choose the most suitable for her.
