Hello to all. I am just starting out on the road to snake education. I raise rabbits for my personal consumption as well as for my friends snakes.

I have been checking out the corn snakes in my area (at least thats what they look like) for the last year. They are fairly docile, even if only for a moment or two.

My wife won't let me have a snake in the house...yet. So, I'm stuck with observing them in nature or at a frinds house.

Well... I've rambled on enough for now.

Have fun!

Thats what my wife said too...lol. Once you get one in the house your good to go. I brought home a baby corn, now I have 2 snakes a lizard and my wife wants a ball python now. She is also a member of this site

Welcome to sSnakeSs.com and I hope you can change her mind.

welcome to the forums.

Good luck persuading your wife to let you have a snake. Try convincing her to let you have a pet hippo or moose, and she will find snakes much more attractive.

Tell her you want a spider instead of a snake. When she says no for like the 10,000th time tell her you'd "settle" for a snake, or even a lizard. I did that little trick. Only I actually wanted a lizard so I started looking into things like fruit bats and told her I wanted one of them (they're actually really neat still working on getting one , a few days later I was chatting with Beth to get my first geckos!!
