well I kept snakes when I was 6.....and now I am 21.......so for around 15 years now.....and my love for them hasn't gone down a bit....infact it has only increased.
I have kept, pythons, garters, gophers, grass, water, and corns before, but then found that corns are the best species that I like. I am looking into kings and milks well and maybe hognose too...but then maybe later when I do get a job.
