Well, I've loved snakes since I was 4 or 5 years old. I have that from my father. He also likes reptiles very much but has never had them. But my mother hates reptiles so of course I couldn't have one.

When I was 16 I went to an Argarian school where they also had reptiles. Besides the lessons I was before and after schooltime always busy with the aminals. I took care of one of the schools horses so spend much after-school time there. Therefore I was a lot around the terrariums too. And we also had a BP. I named her Kaa and checked on her every day. And still my parents would not let me have a reptile.

When I was 22 I got married and left home. This was my chance!!! But my husband didn't like reptiles either. I got permission to take some lizards after a short period but snakes would not come into our home! Untill last fall. I finally got permission to have a snake (cried my eyes out from happiness). And two weeks later I got my Monty Python. I had done a lot of research in the past years (and that were many years!) so was fully ready to keep a snake.

And since a few weeks I have 2 BP. Got a little CB female (born March 24th 2003).
