....didnt think corn snakes/snakes were THIS addictive.
seems iv gone snake mad. All im doing is reading anything I can do and looking for vivs and snakes.
im on preloved, gumtree, local breeders and keep going in the shop we got Cora and our beardie from without my husband knowing!
Put it this way, I would be more than happy to have another im facinated.
Considering my OH didnt want Cora due to a bad fear of snakes he held this big boy @ the weekend

Im totally new to the snakes thing but I held a 14ft python and found that less scary than the hatchlings, hatchlings are nippy, and generally people fear snakes because they hear things, once you have seen one nice one, I think you can be open about any snake. They are just something that people seem to love or hate, and the haters only hate because they are too wimp to give it a go! :P Snakes are the most incredible creatures ever! :)
