I love it when my girls show interest in the snakes.
Tonight, my youngest wanted to hold one. We got out the platty male to let her hold for a while.
It warms my heart :)

Love it when kids get into the hobby in an instructional and educated way. You must be proud.

I wish my dad was into the hobby, then it would be even easier to get whatever I want lol!

Is your dad receptive to the hobby at all? Maybe taking him out "herping" in the field or to a reptile expo and you can "show" him how much you know and how important it is to you...maybe he may start showing some interest? Idk... I just know I get really jazzed when I see my girls dive into a hobby/subject I want to get into it with them.

Another hobby we share :)

My father doesn't care for any "hobby" in existence. But he will hold any reptile I've ever brought home, and get bitten repeatedly without flinching. When the 3 foot mangrove got out in the house, I told my dad and he said "ok, we find it" lol

Business is my dads hobby, so before I worked all I had to do was convince him it was an investment, although I never made any money....

If my son isn't the reptile type, I will just trade him for another I think
