Exotic pets... who has something besides dogs and cats?
« on: December 24, 2015, 12:19:43 PM »
I keep snakes as kind of a hobby with my family.  My daughter wanted to learn more about them and asked for one as a birthday present.  We have quite a few now.  Anyone else have neat or unusual pets?  Here are a couple of our slithers...

Kids today don't know how easy they have it. When I was young, I had to walk 9 feet through shag carpet to change the TV channel.

We have a bearded dragon. It was maybe 3" long when I bought it. Darned thing is now well over two feet long. Can eat 50 crickets at a sitting!

I like beardies but don't own any.  We have 3 fish, 2 dogs and a ton of snakes.  I'm mainly into the gentle giants.  We have a few reticulated pythons though we keep quite a few different species.

My 5 year old daughter loves the garter snakes around the yard in the summer. She'll pick them up two at a time if she can catch them, but makes me hold them if they start musking. Too bad the lab likes to toss them around like chew toys. we used to have a lot of western fence lizards, little blue slashes under their jaw line, but the birds took them out to where it's been years since I've seen one. Other than that, just dog and cats

Nothing too exotic here, just large quantities.  I have 3 dogs, a cat, 3 rabbits, and a horse.  Guinea pig just recently died.  If you ask my wife though, I am the biggest animal in the house.

you know how things go.  You can get used to stuff and call anything normal after awhile.
