New member from West Virginia
Hello all, this looks to be a very good forum and I look forward to learning a lot from everybody.
I don't currently have any reptiles, but a good friend of mine is a pretty serious herp enthusiast and I help with hers quite a bit. Generally I get the animals out and check health/sheds etc. while she cleans the cages (hey, they're hers not mine!). I also help feed and it looks like I'm going to help design and build a cage for a green tree python this winter.
She has two albino burms, a boa, the usual ratsnake, corn etc, a sand boa, a children's python, three ball pythons, a bearded dragon, a tegu, a savannah monitor (my fav) and a still quite small alligator.
For my own critters, I have two cats, three dogs and three aquariums w/ Tanganyikan cichlids the largest of which is a 125 gallon.
I'm currently weighing the possibility of getting a snake of my own. I'm leaning towards a jungle carpet python because they're fairly uncommon and their semi-arboreal habits lend themselves to a really nice looking display enclosure which is important since it'll be going in the living room.
What else? I'm a musician playing in two rock bands, work as a construction cost estimator and mechanical designer and am married to a great woman who is very tolerant of all my hobbies.

You know, I wouldn't object to seeing photos of your cats and fish

Re: New member from West Virginia
I'll see what I can do about the cats. One is black the other a tuxedo so it's actually difficult to get decent shots of them inside.
