AnimalHouse's Hubby

I am AnimalHouse's hubby.

My name is Donald, and I live in the Tampa Bay area of Florida. I work during the day for a software company that makes AntiVirus/AntiSpyware technology. I work with creating databases/programming/webpages, I'm always monitoring at least 7 servers personally, 40 servers company wide making sure they stay up at all times.

Anyway, enough about what I do during the day, I came here because my wife and I have started going to Repile Expos (one in Orlando, and recently the one in Tampa). She has 3 of the leopard geckos and after our recent trip to Tampa I finally became interested in the snakes; especially after holding a few.

I now own an "Abbott" Okeetee cornsnake, so thus now will be participating in the forums!

Good to meet everyone!

Other animals in our house include 2 dogs, a cat, some betta fish, 3 leopard geckos, our 2 cornsnakes, and some other snakes in our roommate's room.
 
Hey Don! Welcome to the forum. It was great to meet you and Sarah at the show. Enjoy your new additions and don't be surprised when you start wanting more!
 
Hey Donald! :wavey: It's been a pleasure seeing all the photos your wife has posted of your zoo...nice to see you join as well. Looking forward to getting to know ya!
 
Hello Don! Welcome to the forum. As I read in the other thread, you got the Abbott (Evelin) and Sarah the stripe. Great picks (the snake and the name).

Okeetee's are my favorite and I own one Abbott named Kinky, although he has no kinks.

Once Evelin settles in, we would love to see more pictures of her, as well as Sarah's (named yet?).
 
It was nice meeting you guys Saturday! We Florida people plan other fun stuff to do besides shows like visits to the serpentarium near Orlando and Gatorland and things like that. We went to Bok Tower once- I'd never even heard of it! Now the big thing to plan for is the National Reptile Breeders Expo in Daytona, the end of August. I think it's the 22-24th this year. You'll get to meet CS.com members from all over the country! It's amazing.

Here are some upcoming Florida shows:

April 18 & 19 - South Tampa Bay, FL
May 9 & 10 - Orlando, FL
June 6 & 7 - Jacksonville, FL
June 27 & 28 Tampa, FL
October 24 & 25 - Orlando, FL
November 21 & 22 - South Tampa Bay, FL
