First my wife gave me grief about breeding rats and mice so I went the frozen route. Then she complained about having frozen rodents in the freezer so I had to purchase a separate freezer. Okay, I couldn't blame her to much there and I needed more room anyway. Then the, "you're spending way to much time and money on snakes" syndrome started and that is where I drew the line. I told her I was involved with snakes well before I met her, she knew this when she met me, and given a choice between the snakes or her there was little doubt in my mind which was headed out the door first lol. Now, the situation has totally reversed itself. Every time I want to sell an animal my wife chimes in, "oh, you've had it since it was a baby, you can't sell that one now." My only recourse is, I tell her when she cleans all of the cages and water dishes, feeds and maintains the entire collection then she will have a lot more say. Until then she has the privilege of playing with them and leaving the behind the scenes daily work to me. I wish I had someone to do that for me. Man, that would be utopia. A little help anyone?
