Things about which we agree

I've had many pet snakes. Best pets there are. No fur on my clothes. No barking when the door bell rings. No chewing up my shoes, grooming fees, kennel costs when I travel, and on and on.

You all are nuts.

Did it ever try to kill you?

There was much blood lost, but no I survived. Most aggressive snake I owned. I’ve had several ball pythons, my eldest (22some years old) recently died. This was my second carpet python. The fist was so docile. This ****** was nutts.
 
I been trying to find it, but there is a photo of my mom, Steelers gear on sitting on a couch watching the Steelers (think playoffs/SB) with a smoke in her hand and me about to pop out. I blame her for my issues. Lol. Only thing that would have made it better is if she had a beer resting on my head

Yeah, my mom had a photo where one of the attendees - not her - was visibly pregnant, smoke in one hand, drink in the other. We became the greatest nation on earth with mothers doing that.

Now? Mothers do not smoke or drink, limit their caffeine, and kids are idiots who think they deserve something because they can draw a breath and burn **** that does not belong to them.
 
We can probably all agree that this is both WTF and pretty funny:

Did they have a 3 year old sculpt that?
 
Yeah beautiful color. Had a couple Rosy Boas, one was a sweetheart who'd lay on my shoulders while doing dishes etc. The other one, what a *******.

My last snake was a rosy. It was my dream snake. She lived three months. Haven't had one for about three years.

Is that super mini retic uptight? I have heard that they are snippy.

No she is super cool. Its all about hook training. I have been bitten twice, but both times it was my fault. I did have a G-Stripe Dwarf Retic male (12 footer), he was a *******. Most of the males I've ever been around were that way. So if you get a female, hook train, and lots of handling all should be good. Super Dwarfs usually only get to 5 or 6 feet, much easier to handle and don't require as much space.

:eek1:

My Rosy grew to about 4.5 feet and that was plenty big for me. That 12 footer could likely kill an adolescent kid.

Lol, nah we're not on the diet. Unless we're in the Amazon and 25 foot Anaconda sneaks up, then we are ******. lol
 
Also, protip on big snakes that mistake you for lunch. If its a pet and they latch on(usually they let go immediately), but if they don't, flick a little rubbing alcohol in their face, or in extreme cases and only when absolutely necessary, grab the tale and snap it they will let go for sure then.
 
I had an oversized male redtail. He was huge. Sweet and cooperative, but huge.
