My name is Vania, i'm 19.. reciding in LA. I work at a small pet store here and i've been trying to find a good reptile forum to ask questions in. We have a reptile room there and our reptiles had been doing horribly, bad habitats, wrong bedding, wrong food, they died pretty often, only for my boss to order more. So i've taken charge of them and i've been doing research and all on em, pretty proud on what i've accomplished =) they're doing pretty good. So hopefully I can get a little more help on here ^^

I myself have a 2-3 year old male ball python named Akuma. I actually bought him from the store. He was previously purchased and returned for biting... not once has he bitten me. He's even warned me by hissing when he was irritated and never bit.... maybe you just need to know how to handle them? But yes... I bought him and now he's my baby. I love him. Sadly I have to keep him at a friends house because my boss wont let me keep him at work, and my moms head will explode if I bring him home. BUt my friend lives about 15 min away, so I can still see him =) I have other pets but he's the only reptile... so I'll be asking info on him as well.

Hopefully this forum proves alot more helpful... and friendly than the others i've tried

congrats on your commitment on making the store better for the animals!

Welcome!

Welcome! thanks for sharing the pics, and yes it's ok to post them here. Feel free to check out the care sheets and ask any questions you have. Questions are probably better off going in their own forum, because people have a tendency to not re-read the intro topics once they have welcomed someone.... We wouldn't want your question to get missed!
