Hi everyone
What's up. Just introducing myself. I had a bunch of herps from age 6 till I left for the military at 19. It started with a leopard frog (raised from a tadpole), went to some "exotic" green tree frogs, a leopard gecko, then a Sonoran gopher snake, two brooksi, anoles, an albino pacman frog. I also had the random garter/water snakes, toads, a spring peeper that was with me almost from the time I found out you could get super small crickets at the store.
I had a couple red ears that were probably the biggest underestimation of husbandry requirements I ever had as a keeper. And I now understand why they aren't recommended for inexperienced keepers.
I have been out of the military for a while, and am getting back into the hobby.
I have two 5 1/2 gallon tanks set up in anticipation of my new arrivals from Vivid Reptiles, a pair of Baird's Rat Snakes. If only this damned weather would cooperate.
Anyways I hope to become a regular round these parts swapping husbandry tips and tricks and learning some things that I missed out on the past few years.
