...the point was for the kid to explore and educate herself...I was shocked while being there, she was extremely well informed about all reptiles....she has been reading on the web and watching countless videos about reptile care...I'm so proud of her....
...she really wanted a cat, I really dint want one...last one clawed my couch :( I ha e been taking her after work to volunteer at the shelter for a week, and she fell in love with all the cats...and one particular one...ugh....so the deal was I get the snake and drop the cat...she agreed...thank God!
So now we have a snake. We are also in the process of adopting another beardy from the shelter....I have all the equipment just desperately trying to find a 50g tank.
That sums up my exciting Saturday!

'Chuck' has not picked that up yet. And reptiles are much cheaper to take care of than a fur baby.

You can't even take proper care of your fucking kid, so the LAST fucking thing you need to bring home are some exotic pets that need a fair amount of attention.Quote from: "Chuck Bronson"
You should talk....you've never raised a kid...its harder than taking care of an animal. At this point im over qualified.

From what I researched they are from Africa. I'm sure you can purchase them just about anywhere in the world. People breed them.

I know you would. I do like cats. I just dont want something that is needy and needs attention. Reptiles work for me. And I do love the aquarium life! I love setting it up and making it look super cool.
My new place, the living room is quite large so I've divided it into two.. one space is the couch and TV and the other side is my TV stand with the tanks.

Is the OP truly serious?
I hope for her sake & her child she's just making it up.
A python attack five years ago killed two children after it escaped from a pet shop in New Brunswick Canada:
Other than for zoos those things should be banned for the public good.
BT this is one reason I favor the ownership of at least one small handgun for home use.
To protect its inhabitants in the event that they are attacked in cases like that.
If I lived next door to someone with a python I'd wanna have a gun for self defense

Yes. The start up might be expensive with all the equipment, but I already have it all. They only eat 1x week.

They eat live mice don't they?Quote from: "Fashionista"
In the wild yes...but as a pet, you buy them frozen, thaw and then feed. Sometimes the rodent will bite and harm the snake and then they wont want to eat it...causing more damage...so frozen and thawed is best.

had to switch Clyde from frozen to live(which I'd stun to avoid injury to Clyde) because he got depressed and ignored frozen or spit it out(which it extremely unhealthy)
Pythons can get pretty big and have big teeth I know my Snek got to around 10 feet..
Snek handling wasn't for me though ,so I ended up giving him away...

Well, I traded the python last week for a gecko. I liked the snake but it didnt want frozen anymore...it wanted live food...I'm very uncomfortable about that. So I traded with a friend. The kid lived her gecko and her kids loved my snake...so it was a good trade!Quote from: "Berry Sweet"
A gecko is smaller and should be easier to handle.

I had my kids bday at an animal santuary where they got to have hands on tour with a guide...I was going to get that gecko they had there while I was there, but it got adopted out :( the bday was success tho! The kid got to go in with the huge tortoises and feed them! She loves tortoises! You can only do this atbut he santuary if you have a party and are the birthday girl...so this was well worth it...she was so happy she was crying!
