i was shocked when the owner of the reptile shop i use said he had 400 snakes, but after looking at how many different corns there are and how many i,d like to own i,m not surprised and thats not counting the other breeds. so in a month i bought 2 small vivs, a fancy baby corn and a royal. then converted my 3ft fishtank to another viv and filled it with an adult ghost. but i,m already eyeing up others. where is this going to end? the wife drew the line last weekend though when i was looking at a very cheap 9ft female boa. she said "if that moves in i,ll move out" so i suppose that gives me a clue about my limits, lol.

addictive is not the word

Oh yes... too addictive
You may notice somethings wrong when you have more vivs than normal furniture and more mice in the freezer than people food....
