Hey, everyone!
I actually found this forum a year ago or so but didn't have the cash or wherewithal to take care of my own pets. I'm back at it again, soon to have a western hognose. I decided I might as well make myself a regular to familiarize myself with reptile lingo and a husbandry mindset. I'm currently in community college transferring to UCI or USC next fall. I've kept a variety of pets, everything including mice, 2 rats, 2 Guinnea Pigs, Capybara(jk), 1 Chilian Rose Tarantula, 2 Armored Lizards(so cool), 2 Corn Snakes, 3 turtles(too young to see different species), 4 cats (1 Siamese and her 2 kittens, 1 Persian), 2 dogs (1 mutt, 1 pure bred Air Dale Terrier) that we owned and a couple strays that I took in until animal services came by. I once found a king snake while walking home and took care of it for an afternoon. I found a Carpet Python coming out of a gopher hole(about 6 feet long), I picked it up and took it home for an afternoon as well.Those last two don't technically count toward experience but they do show my love for, and acceptance of reptiles(snakes specifically.
