So excited! All my looking longingly at Royal Pythons has paid off, my incrediably tolerant other half has agreed to us purchasing a royal once Vin has become established and I've gained a little more snake experience!

*victory dance*

Can't believe how addictive snakes are! I've wanted a snake for years, but once I held my first corn hatchling, I knew I was in love!

So excited! What would the royal owners out there advise as the age of a 1st royal? A baby or an adult? xx

Think he is! I do love royals, and he likes them to so its all happiness I do sometimes worry about the reputation they get for being funny feeders but Benji said they have a "silly season" so hopefully I'd manage ok! x

I'm sure if you have any issues they'll be more than happy to help on the sister site! I must admit I like Royals too, maybe one day.........

You should get one to! Hopefully if I do buy a royal my other half will be more keen on handling, he likes Vin but is scared of hurting him as he's so small and slim! xx

Brilliant news and yes your right, snakes are so addictive!

I have been looking for a baby Royal for quite some time now and finally put my name down on one yesterday. I bring her home in 3 weeks.
