Re: What brought you here..

I joined because Sasha is my first BP and I have been looking for other people that are experienced in all the nuances of owning a BP. I have joined other forums but comparing them to what I have found here (knowledge wise) is like comparing 2+2 to College level Cal 2.

I have ran into many ODD nuances with Sasha and researched world wide to find the needed information for her. (Herp vets do not exist in my area..at all..and regular vets I have learned this week are not as knowledgeable as I would like. They almost killed my cat by misdiagnosing him.)

Re: What brought you here..

Found it on a search engine, like the atmosphere and the knowledgible people and the pics. Pretty much just a lurker but love seeing and reading about all the snakes and lizards. Just wished this forum was on Tapatalk im hardly ever on a computer since i got my droid.

Re: What brought you here..

I am finally able to keep a snake, and my boyfriend and I agreed that a ball python was the best first step. I was doing research on snakes in general and found this forum! I love finding good hobbyist forums online, and now that I have my first BP, I'll be referencing this place.

Re: What brought you here..

Wanting the best life for my animals I am always in search for new information no matter how much I know I can always learn more. Books are fine but just gives basics where as forums I can learn from everybodys day to day experiences in a wide range of situations. Some may not aply to my pets but you never know when they will aply and its best to be prepared.
This forum seems to have the most helpful, caring and knowledgable community. When I first got my snakes I put my feelers out posting on several forums this was the only one that impressed me by timely caring responses without treating me like an idiot for not knowing everything already before I joined.
Thanks everyone for making this such a great place to learn

Re: What brought you here..

Hi to all reptile enthusiasts/lovers
I am a medical doctor in Kolwezi, Katanga Province, DRC. The local knowledge about snakes is sparse but a few snakes seem to have survived despite the ongoing quest to rid the countryside of them through mainly uncontrolled bushfires. I would like to get more info on the species commonly found here as we'd like to start an educational programme. Although we have polyvalent antivennin from RSA, I would feel much better knowing which local species' envenomation it will be effective against.
Appreciated!
Andre

Why should it be one or the other? Why not one and the other..?

I would have chosen both "I liked both the knowledge and atmosphere" had it been on the list of the options.

Re: What brought you here..

I was looking for a forum to get extra info the red-tailed boa I had wanted, and this was the only forum I wasn't too young to join. lol I got my red-tail, and learned bunches of tips that built on all the vids and caresheets I read. Not only that, I love the atmosphere. I've never seen arguments get more than a little bit nippy, which is a good thing.
