I think I really should ban myself from the pet shop in town. I not long got back from there having bought some more crickets for Palpatine. I got talking to one of the staff members and she showed me their snake collection. I more or less fell in love, but not with the woman, though she has a nice rack.
No, I am enamoured of the snakes. I really do think I have been bitten by the exotic pet bug. Palpatine is doing alright, though he does get very active at night! From what I’ve spoken of with the woman at the shop, I’ll kick off with a Corn Snake and see how I get on. If things go alright with that, then my next project will be a Royal Python. I’ve kept rodents and to be brutally honest, I’ve that many nasty bites off a hamster that it has pout me off them, no matter how fluffy and cute they may seem.
I’m going to do some more reading up on snake care before I dive in but I really do think I lost my heart to a Corn Snake today.
Let's see some photos of the menagerie!
ReplyDeleteNorma, since you asked so nicely, i'll post up some pics tomorrow but since the passing of the rodents, i have just 2 cats, a dog and a scorpion. Today though, i had an encounter in town that i'll blog about later that has given me other ideas with regard to pets...
