Congrats to our fellow milk junkie, Nathan Wells. He and his wife Chirstina are expecting their first child due in late October!

Nate, if you thought rearing stubborn hatchling snakes was tough, wait until your little one arrives in October! But seriously, I have a 3 year and 18 month old and I wouldn't trade being a father for anything.

Someday soon, you'll be able to share your love of snakes with them as well.

I agree 100%!! My wife and I have 3 kids under 5 years old. It's A LOT of work and we really don't get much sleep here these days. But, i would not trade it for the world!

Once again Congrats Nathan!!

This is my daughter Lilly, Just after I took this pic she threw the Alterna over her head... NOT GOOD! Although, she thought it was hilarious!

This is my son Mikey helping me out in the snake room... My youngest boy is only 8 months.. no snakes for him yet!

that's great Patton! post a pic or two of your kid....or even better with a snake

Here's a pic of the whole heard. Plus a pic of my "birthday gift" with an Eastern King. My friend Ryan and I took our kids out for a little field herping, that's his son in the photo, and Ryan flipped this screamin' male Eastern, and of course the kids wanted to pose for a pic.

Let's see if it works this time.


Here's a pic of the whole family at the San Antonio River Walk.

All kidding aside, congrats!!!!!!!!!! There is nothing like being a Dad. If it were up to me, I'd have another four girls. Here is my little one last year helping me out in the room. Best of luck to you and the Mrs. Mike Panichi

honesty is my only policy

cute kid and seem to be a great helper nice boaphile racks too.

BOOYAH ! ! ! Congratulations Nate! Good to hear that all the plumbing is working just fine, and now the REEEAL fun begins.....cravings, mood shifts, water retention, honeydo lists (you know, "honey do this and honey do that" -- unless of course you get that already.....), back and belly rubs with that cocoa butter stuff, and, well, you'll see. And to think, that's all BEFORE the lil' one arrives. But hey, in a few years you'll have a built-in snake room buddy just like the rest of us (aka - cheap labor). Do keep us posted man -- there's nothing like it -- changes everything but for the better. Nothing more powerful than love.
Can't wait to see what he/she looks like too -- my little ones are bi-racial also (German/Filipino).

See you soon man.
