Hi, I just found this website on google, it looks really cool! I'm a novice in terms of keeping reptiles and I have 0.1 Okeetee Corn Snake and 0.0.1 Great Plains Toad, I'll get pictures soon!

Welcome aboard! I just joined a couple days ago and everyone has been great! As far as being a novice, everyone has to start somewhere. Best advice I can give is research, research, research! Don't be afraid to ask ? and use the net and books to find out info before you get a herp. My rule is if you find out what the size and temperment is going to be for that herp when it's an adult (before you get it) and you can't handle it then, don't get it as a baby. It's getting so popular now that people just get snakes and lizards thinking their "cute" as babies, but realize soon they don't have room for a 15 ft. burm and try to get rid of it. That's why I got into rescuing them.

But herps are wonderful mistical creatures, so enjoy!
