serpentina
What the deuce???
I was just wondering what was the spark that got you all into snakes in general? For me it was my mother (gotta love her for that-thanks Mom) I was young, maybe 8 or 9 years old and we were walking outside and came across a common Garter snake. Being young I was scared at first and my mother told me about snakes a bit while she held it, to make me see it was harmless. Then she asked if I wanted to hold it and I said yes. From then on I have been fascinated with snakes and basically all reptiles/amphibians. I went on to get a degree in Biology and had a few jobs where I taught kids about animals (including snakes) I cared for some snakes and turtles that the school I worked for had, but never owned my own until now. I hope to pass this great gift my mother gave to me (love of snakes) to my kids one day. Just curious what got you started.....? :wavey:
