Need to rant

[MissC89]

Oh. Okay. I know you guys don't really 'know' me but I'm going to put this out there to explain myself a little - I have terrible anxiety and depression (on medication) so I sometimes feel personally attacked and it upsets me. So anyway now that that is out in the open;

I have read through numerous articles about corn snakes, ball pythons, and blue tongue skinks (three main reptiles I am hoping to get)

I have asked breeders of those specific reptiles exactly what to do, gotten different opinions, and looked through books.

The only 'experience' I don't have on my reptile resume is actually taking care of one. I've handled them and everything, but my parents would never let me get one (no matter HOW much I begged) so, no I don't have experience in actually HAVING a reptile, but I have a lot of experience with PETS.
