Well, last weekend i thought of a good idea. I was going to sell or trade off a couple of my chameleons ( i breed chameleons right now) and get a pet (im not planning on breeding) ball python. Well she agreed to this but then on thursday monrning she changed her mind and decided she doesnt want a snake in the house. Well at first i was really excited when she said yes because ive been wanting to get a snake for many years and shes never let me. So i was devistated to hear that she changed her mind. over the past couple of days ive been begging and begging but no luck.
But heres my problem, i go to school 8 hours a day then i go to crew practice. I have 4 chameleons and 2 bearded dragons and its very hard to give them the meticulous care i love to give to my animals. So because of my schedule i wanted to downsize and get a snake. I decided on a snake because unlike lizards you dont have to feed them every day or every other day. I also just dont want to get rid of my animals because i love keeping reptiles and i love the responsibilty and challenge they bring me.
So my mother keeps telling me that she just doesnt want a snake in the house. But i dont see what her problem is because i have many lizards and theyre animals too but they just have legs. And she said she doesnt like the fact that they eat live mice but i kept telling her i wouldnt feed them live. Shes still stuck on that one side of the fence and how can i persuade her to let me get a snake? I really need help with this because i want to have a snake really bad.
