Hello everyone out there,

My name is Anton and I'm from Ontario, Canada. I've been interested in reptiles all my life but I got involved in the hobby only relatively recently.

Currently I am keeping a female ball python, "Ballah"; 4 feet at 1.7 years old. She's really well behaved and I haven't been bitten so far. I also love arachnids and I'm keeping a Chilean rose, "Sylia". Sylia is fully grown at approximately 10cm. There are definitely going to be new additions so I will get some nice pics going and share them with everyone. I am thinking of getting a green tree python, but right now I am just reading up on them and figuring out the setup.

On a somewhat unrelated note, I love martial arts and I practice Aikido, so if anyone wants to chat up about it, just let me know.

It's a pleasure to be a part of this forum and I can't wait to get to know some people.

I attached some pics of Ballah, Sylia and myself.

Cheers.

Hello- nice animals! I have a few BPs and a rosehair myself. My rosehair is a b*tch though..lol. My last one was really cool and gave high fives and waved "hello". LOL. Enjoy the forums!

That's pretty funny, my rose doesn't wave :unibrow:.
Thanks, and I'm sure I will enjoy the forums.

Welcome to the forums! I'm sure you'll find everyone to be pretty useful, I've learned tonsss purely by reading :P
I'm from Canada as well, only the other side haha I'm a B.C. girl :)
I have, currently, a beautiful pastel red tail boa who's about 1 year 1/4, he's about 3 1/2 feet. I've had corns throughout childhood but I went with something a little bigger this time :)
Well anyway I'm rambling, welcome and have fun!

Do your spiders ever bite you? Sorry I am just wondering because I know I get bit by wild spiders all the time. Lol I dont know if there different. Oh and welcome

[anton]

Thanks for the warm welcome everyone.

@ JustASnakeGirl: Canada eh!? lol. Good stuff, I love red tail boas, must be a treat to have him around. I really want to go to BC, I've never been.

@ infernalis: That pic is pretty cool. :D

@Hillsberry: Uh, surprisingly no. I've had tarantulas for three years now and I haven't been bitten once even though I handle them quite often. I think its because they're quite large so they don't feel as threatened as a small spider which makes them more docile.

Yeah he's pretty sweet :) It's really pretty but our exotic pet laws suck haha
