Hi everyone, I'm Lydia from West Virginia. I'm a snake newbie, though my partner is not. I just rescued my first snake from a home that couldn't care for it anymore. Currently determining sex and getting it fully set up in the new home (and brainstorming names). The new snake is an 18inch ball python and is my first snake. My partner, B, has had a series of snakes and currently he has a handsome 6ft long red tail boa named Arrow. I found this forum while surfing around and it seemed like a great community to join for any questions I might have and to share.
Currently our little menagerie includes : both snakes, one medium pet rat (that lived through a few days in the tank with Arrow when he wasn't hungry and was then adopted by me) named Bonecrusher Rattington III, 3 tank raised small (for now) koi fish named Mac, Charlie, and Dennis, one Betta fish named Maurice the Gangster of Love, and one snoring snaggle-tooth cat named Harriet Tubman.
Pleased to meet you all and I look forward to conversations in the future!
