Hello from Nebraska

RangerJim · 10-17-07, 10:17 AM

Just wanted to say hello to all you crazy herper's out there, will be around here a lot since I happened by this place. If anyone is around the Nebraska area hit me up in a pm, always nice to talk to others about some thing you love.

Will start out by saying that I have owned many different types of snakes in the past and still now, so I am not a beginner (atleast I don't think so

) but I am to corns. I guess I kind of went backwards instead of the norm in snake owning and keeping. I went crazy when I first started, got a ball python, then 3 months later had 11 snakes all of different backgrounds. Had 3 ball pythons, 4 red tails boas, 2 retics. One was a little girl around 4 ft or so, so still a baby, the other was about 9 ft or so and as mean as they come. So long story short ended up trading the mean girl off for 2 albino burms and picked up another albino a little later. Was going to have to move to Italy, so got rid of almost everything I had, but ended up not going, so now I am kind of getting back into the swing of things. Now I only have 1 ball, 3 boas, 1 baby burm, 2 corns and a leucistic texas rat snake.

Well I have rampled long enough, will be nice to meet everyone and talk snake.

Welcome to the Source, Jim. I lived in Omaha for a little while. Only 3 months, but I really liked it. They had some interesting pet shops downtown. Is "The Lizard King" still there?? Ever been to "Nebraska Furniture Mart"? I used to work there, but in the back office in purchasing. Make sure to post pictures of your snakes when you get time.

Tonya's right - Welcome to the forum!

Yes as a matter of fact "The Lizard King" is still going strong. I get all my stuff from Micky, he knows his stuff and the questions that he can't answer he will tell you straight out instead of trying to make a buck. If anyone ever comes through Omaha for any reason they should stop in there, great shop. I will probably post pics this weekend before feeding.
