I have only had a corn since Feb. 2006 but I have had reptile for most of my life. I just got a ball python about a month ago.

I love the ball python but she is hard to feed. I was told she ate f/t but she only wants live. Here is a link to a thread I started about her eating:

I am thinking about a hognose next but I have to convince my wife first.

I passed up one last weekend to get another Red Eared Slider. They only had one hognose and they wanted $150 for it. This was at a reptile show. I am going to wait until I see them a lot cheaper.

I would love a red tail but they get to big and my wife would kill me.

I havent found a "cheap" hoggie. I payed just under the equivelent of $120 for mine... But he was worth every penny.

LOL its not like you could hide a boa or anything
Anyhoo i will now stop stealing someones thread

I have seen them at reptile shows for $50 & $60. I am hoping to find one around that price again. If it takes awhile to find that price again that is ok since I am running out of room very quickly.
