I just went to my local reptile expo I currently have three ball pythons 2 caramel and 1. I also have a blue tongue skink very interesting lizard that is kitty litter trained. I just wanted complain that I wasn't able to get any new snakes :( I don't have room and need to wait until I move into my knew place. But man is it a killer to have to look and can't buy lol.
Anyone else here have any interest in reptiles love to here what you guys have.
 
Any snakes near me are seen by my three eyes. The two on my face, and the third that spits hot lead and fire.
 
Don't you have a mess of those type of snakes that have gone wild there, Alpine?
 
I have been in to reptiles my entire life. Before I moved to NY I had a 13 foot female burm, and 8 foot male burm, a 6 foot red tail boa, a 5 foot columbian boa, a pair of peublan milk snakes, a pair of banded califonia kings, and 4 iguanas. Unfortunitely I had rehomed them all prior to moving. Now that I am back in Florida, my youngest son has really got in to reptiles. He has a garter we rescued and rehabbed, and two corn snakes. He now wants to add a amelanistic corn snake next.

I can handle a lizard but snake, especially the size you had would scare me to death.

LOL, she scared a lot of people, especially my ex, should have kept the snake and got rid of the ex first, or better yet used the burm to get rid of the ex! :D

I love snakes, there's just something about them, they're awesome. My son and I go herping often, we find several different kinds of lizards, green anoles, brown anoles, florida scrub lizards, various skinks, and we have found a few different snakes, a juvenile coach whip, black racer, a water moccossin (venemous) and corns. The one I REALLY want to find is the scarlet king snake.
 
I had a Dalmation crested gecko for a while, but decided I like keeping aquariums better. He got rehomed to my friends sister's.
 
Went out to the garage this morning, and found this guy. He wasn't happy when I first grabbed him to remove him from the garage, bit me a couple times, but after holding him for a while, he calmed down quite a bit, especially for a black racer. So I thought I would see if he would cooperate for a few pics. I took him out to the vineyard to release him and put him on one of the plants and he was actually very cooperative.

It's fun to see the different reactions when it comes to snakes and lizards. I have to go with ncnitro there is just something about them. That draw me in. Unfortunately the problem in flordia does help people hate snakes more and the tv shows they have on removing them from flordia make it out to be that this snakes are so terrible. They do need to be removed from Florida but I wish they would better educate people on there shows. I have been down in flordia multiple times now to help with capturing the snakes. Nothing better then a vacation then going out to capture 15 ft snakes

It's nice to see there is atleast 1 herper around. I have to say it would have been hard for me to give up my snakes that's for sure. I have resently got involved with my local animal shelters to help them with caring and relocating any reptiles that come there. Its amazing how many parents get there kids reptiles not realizing how big the get or that they can live 20 or 30 years. I have so far relocated 5 iguanas and 2 red tail boas. I really enjoy it.
 
Evolution baby. God gave me hands to pull the trigger with. And feet to run like hell screaming like a lil bitch if it jumps out the tree to surprise me.

Edit:: haha, I said jump, but it's got no feets!!!
