Re: Polls
3 breeding seasons ago, I had over 400 babies in the house at once. Does that count?

Thamnophis have large litters, so it don't take a lot of moms to produce that many.
Never again though.. keeping all those hungry little mouths happy was tiring, Dorothy and I had to work in shifts to keep up.
I will dig out some pics, we had feeding boxes scattered everywhere.

Re: Polls
I had up to 13 at one time...the majority of them being wc rescues that I found good homes for after I got them in better condition and eating regularly.
Currently I have 11, about half are rescues. All are my pets.

Pretty much lol I still have 2 more long time definite animals I've been wanting for years to get and a couple of more definite animals that I've recently started to really want.
When I started keeping again, all I wanted was a royal and a burm. That one burm turned into two...one for me and one for the boyfriend. Then I decided to get the kids a royal (these are their animals but until they can prove to me that they can afford to take care of them on a consistent basis, these animals stay with me and I claim them). So there's 5.
Then I ran across a couple of rescues that needed a new home. These were the two dumerils. The boyfriend had been drooling over the BRB's for a couple of months so I got him one for Christmas. I received some extra money for Christmas and wanted another snake. I was actually missing having a king and a red tail since I'd had them before, so I got one of each. lol Then I heard about a special needs snake, so I offered for it. I'll be getting her once I get moved and settled. Lastly I ran across the carpet needing a new home, so I have her. That brings my total to 11 and I still haven't gotten the two I've been wanting for years! I'll get them this year though and hopefully a couple more 
I have a feeling that before this year is out, my reptile count will be double what it is now 
I can't stop myself! I have such a soft spot for rescues and animals that need rehoming.
