Types of snakes being kept!

[Savage69]

Well I'm probably beating a dead horse by asking this, but I was curious as to what types of snakes everybody is keeping on this site? Which are more popular - boas or pythons, and what kinds? Being new to this site, I haven't had the chance to scour all four cornors of this forum yet!

Hello, and welcome in case I missed your intro. thread.

I am from Minnesota and I have:

1 BCI
2 Corn snakes
2 Eastern Ribbon Snakes

[Man_vs_Wild]

3 rough scale python... they are still fairly rare.
2 coastal carpet python one is a hypo
1 water python
1 black and gold jungle python.
1 staffordshire bull terrier named rusty

[Will0W783]

a narcoleptic tegu? :P I think we need some videos of this

Yep, we think he's narcoleptic...something's not right with the little b-tard. He's a nasty bugger, and he'll freak out and try to tail whip and hiss and charge, and then just....stop and fall asleep, instantly. I've seen him go on a feeding frenzy when I drop a bunch of crickets in his cage. He will run around and stuff as many into his mouth as possible, and then just close his eyes and go to sleep with them hanging out of his mouth. You have to rap on the glass to wake him up and remind him to swallow..lol.
My fiance decided to give him a bath a few months back and he spazzed out in the water, splashing and thrashing and then just.....went still and floated. I said, "John, oh my God, we killed it!". So John poked him gently and he woke up and went back to spazzing...lmao.
I will definitely try to get some home video of Narc doing his thing. It's bizarrely hilarious.

[shaunyboy]

cheers shaun

[gonesnakee]

In 2008 I had Jaguars from breeding my big dark Diamond male to a Pure Coastal female Jaguar. The one listed is the only one I still have as I figure he is the nicest.
I did have 3 males I held back to begin with & then after around a year sold one & just sold the other here at the show last weekend.
Wanted to see how they progressed before deciding which one to keep around.
He is really starting to look nice, I'll have to get some updated pics of him THX Mark

Some older pics of him Image hosting, free photo sharing & video sharing at Photobucket (http://s398.photobucket.com/albums/pp67/GONESNAKEE/Jaguar%20Carpet%20Pythons/2008%20Diamond%20Jaguars/Jolly%20Roger/?albumview=slideshow)
