I go to UC Santa Cruz... People that don't shave or shower are not uncommon. In fact, they are very common. And they are not pleasant to sit next to in class...

I have 2 black racers and a baby corn snake. The corn is tiny and is so happy with life. My female racer is 5 feet long and the male is 3 feet. I let them live loose in my studio, with a 23 gallon tank that they're free to go in and out otf. Lucie rules the roost. Gucci hides and tries to bite me whenever I come near. It's a matter of gaining trust and respect from him.

The ferret can't stand her cage. She sleeps most hours under my couch. My cat is plain stupid and paws at the snakes like yarn. My cornsnake lives in a 23 gallon tank. My spider and frog live happily in a 10 gallon tank.

I know my ****. Stop believing everything you read.
Enough said.

Re: Do reptiles have feelings?

I love my snakes. Heck, i love some of my friend's snakes. I don't expect them to reciprocate. I have a wife an a golden retriever if I want affection.

Maybe there is just something wrong in my head but those two together just seem wrong.

Guys... I've decided to let Kaybe and Pika have full roam of my apartment.... after all, I wouldn't want them to feel isolated or like they're in jail their whole lives!

Maybe you should buy a breeding colony of mice and let them free roam also. That way you have a truly eco friendly set up for your snakes.
