I still live at home, so without her saying yes in the first place i wouldn't have any. They have now grown on her and she has lost her fear of snakes and handles them dailly when i pull them out.
The only thing she wint do is feed them!! lol

Chocky , the bloodred amel was my first snake Will.
It took mum about 3 monthes to actually touch 1 and another 6 before she vould pull a snake out of the viv unsepervised, so 9 months in total give or take a week or 2.
She was so frightned of them and had a serous fobia, but faced it head on and is now doing great with all the snakes.

my mum and dad had a royal python first, they got rid of it because it was gettin to big,when i was younger i was really involved with snakes and me an my dad used to catch grass snakes although the adders were left to him! then me an my mate did a load of work with his snakes (great fun!!!) and then my parents supported me fully (and got very involved with) my first snake izzy, then 3-4 months after that they got me my royal python kiera for my birthday and finally i got shelley (my snow corn) to mate the two corns in later life, im glad that my parents can be supportive with this cos my snakes mean a lot to me.
