I have a snake before but it would not eat so I had to let it go!(It was wild-caught) My parents are still thinking but not sure if they will get me another captive bred Garter! What can I say to make them let me have one? I know this is kindof rude but could someone maybe give me one? Please E-mail me at jkjjborn@hotmail.com

What can I say to make them let me have one?

"I have researched the subject extensively, and have determined it will cost X dollars per month to feed the snake, X dollars a month for lighting/heating, and X hours feeding and cage cleaning. I pledge to totally fund and conduct all the above-mentioned operations, and in the event of breach of contract, I will not ask you for another reptile as long as I live under your roof. An animal is a big responsibility, and I am prepared to take on that responsibility. My grades will not suffer and I won't turn to drugs. Signed, Your Offspring."

At least your parents are considering it. I was not allowed to have a snake (my mom didn't like them).
