Re: What brought you here..

I had found this forum during a search, and usually, before i join any forum, being for reptiles, or one of my other interests, tattoos and body piercings, i tend to be a lurker for quite a while, just soaking up the knowledge and trying to get up the courage to actually interact, since i'm quite shy, personality wise.

I really love the atmosphere here, very laid back and extremely friendly, and i am very glad i joined. I also enjoy hearing about other people's experiences with their various reptiles, be it snakes, geckos, etc. And i'm always eager to learn, because i know there is so many things i might not know.

Re: What brought you here..

I was searching out food sizes for various snakes as I provide some of the larger prey items for snakes in my area (rabbits, chickens, ect..) And I found the `food for thought`part, which was very informative.

After many discussions with my customers and having such good subjects to participate in or just read through, I started to fall in love with the snakes themselves. Hubby bought me my first 3 snakes this summer.

I am a member of some other forums, but this is the one I participate in the most. The others I go to because I am participating ina particular thread, or simply put..... to amuse myself with all thier bickering back and forth!!

But I come here to learn, help where I can and to discuss snakes with a bunch of good people.

Re: What brought you here..

I was researching Reptiles, and stumbled upon this site. It was the first one with actual helpful answers, and the people seemed to be quite helpful so I decided it would be a good community to be apart of..

Thing is, no one needs to have any answers, join in and ask questions, make small talk, just visit....

Re: What brought you here..

I came accross the forums in a search and lurked for a couple months before I realized there was a minimum of attack mongers here and I joined. I've joined a few other forums since, but this is the only one I keep coming back to.
