Hello, I'm Caitlyn! I live in the Pacific NW. I own 1 dog (Bolt, a rust coloured Chihuahua/Pomeranian), 1 cat (Midnight, a black American short hair), and 1 horse (Peaches, a Cremello Quarter Horse).
I've been interested in reptiles for about 5 years, after learning that they weren't as scary as they had been portrayed (by the ignorant of course). I have always captured Garter snakes and returned them a few minutes later. Now, I'm all setup to get a snake of my own!
I was looking around, doing research, and had seen the "beginner snakes". I considered a Milk Snake then fell in love with a Rosy Boa, but the Ball Python had captured my heart (Although the Brazilian Rainbow Boa will always be my favorite).
I read how these so-called "beginner snakes" were actually very picky and could be nerve wracking to deal with at times, but that didn't make me run the other way.
All those different morphs are astounding and I can't get enough of it. I am now in the market for a hatchling-juvenile male Ball Python. I hope to soon post pictures of my newly acquired Ball Python
