Hi, new to the forum, and new to reptiles in general.
I joined so I could see attached images in some viv build threads.
I guess if I have to post an intro thread I may as well give some background. I have always wanted a reptile, all through my childhood to now, as a 24 year old university student.
I have a friend with a beardie and know another couple who has a large herp collection. So I am not completely green as far as general handling, husbandry, and experience goes.
I was planning on a uromastyx for a long time, but gave that up due to space and mobility concerns. The enclosure size needed would be too big to move around and possibly cram into a tiny apartment with grad school and a city move looming around the corner. Then I thought, hey, snakes need way less room. So now I am interested in a plan old regular Ball Python. Will be building a 3' x 1.5'x 1.5' plywood enclosure for it.
So yeah. That's me. I'll just go back to lurking now. :nerd:
