keeping with the theme of last night's youtube, here's a wishlist of a different sort. i have a goal to start keeping snakes again by the end of this year and into the spring of next. i really miss herpetology and the hard, rewarding work that comes from keeping these animals. i want to do it right this time though, with species i'm genuinely ( Read more... )

ohhhh nice list [not that I have much knowledge of herpetology to begin with so I'm just fascinated by the pictures, as fail as that is... but nice choices?~]

like the lavender corn snake! the Brazilian rainbow boa too. The black king snake is a bit creepy though......

even if not all the lavenders turn out purplish, they're still lovely steely-silver and grey. and that picture of the black king is kind of intense XD kingsnakes are kind of goofy and usually have such like, derp faces.

that mexican black king snake looks so fucking bomb. i reallyreallyREALLY wouldn't mind one. it and the brazilian rainbow boa can make beautiful bbs. except not. coz i'd want them both males. they can make BEAUTIFUL WRISTLETS INSTEAD. except alive ones that move and are all YAY I'M AN ITTY BITTY SNAKE MOTHERF*CKERS!!!!! because real snake skin wristlets/bags/whatever make me :'(

thanks for sharing. i love your love of snakes. bawwww. ;a; /grabby hands/

i could so imagine you with this bamf homie snake scarf

kings make awesome snake pets. they're kind of squirmy/dorky but they chill when they get older. ;-; and if you want live snake wristlets, ball pythons are so content to sit and be jewelry for hours on end, no lie.

/GRABBY BACK AT YOU miss you, ladyface.

lmao omg i would just dieeeee of happiness. and my mom would prolly never speak to me again. she can handle everything but reptiles. i think we may have talked about this before? /memory fail

that sounds so adorb when you put it like that! I LOVE EM SO MUCH ALREADY. and i'm pretty sure i'll never get to own one until i have my own place again. baww, thanks for the info! they sound stupidly adorb too! <3

MISS YOU MOAR. i'm going on an indefinite hiatus from the INTERNET though. but if you ever decide to stalk me where i can still have net-communicating capabilities that i'll actually USE (vs lj voice posts) i'm on twitter.com/ohmerlin

I THINK WE MAY HAVE TOO BUT I HAVE THAT CONVO WITH A LOT OF PEOPLE I THINK, about being shunned, disowned etc., for having reptiles sobs. maybe one day i will have to take a road trip with a snake or two and visit you :[

ahh this is like another reason for me to resurrect my twitter D: i keep debating if i should since it's been inactive for a year or two now but if it's to keep up with you ...
