Out with the old (husband) in with the new... lol

[Woma_Wild]

Hello everyone.

I've had my heart set on owning a python for many years but husband would never allow it.

Yesterday, I went to Castle Hill expo and found my dream snake - a tanami woma.
Only 2 were at the expo,so what's a woman to do.

On a serious note - over the years,I have done a fair bit of reading on the subject.
Then, a few months ago, my nephew told me he was going to be given a free childrens python. I adviced him to do his research first and then decide.
I helped him with his research and this lead me to find more and more about womas. It was love at first sight.

Naturally, when asked if I'd like to accompany him to the expo, I jumped at the chance.

I purchased all required goodies for her and I couldn't be happier.
She is only a few weeks old but is already showing that woma "personality"

i'm sure that I will be asking heaps of questions, learning from the experts here and learning hands on too.

and yes, husband is gone.

Hello and welcome to the best forum there is Im sorry to hear about your hubby and I'm sure you will do much better, you sound like a lovely girl 'In a, I'm not a creepy compliment making stalker that wants to do creepy things sorta way' LMFAO.

I am glad that you are very happy with your new family member, they are an amazing animal that doesn't get the respect or acknowledgement that they deserve. I would add some new person pointers around about now but it sounds like you have done your research and know the basics. But start reading around the forum 'you will pick up on things that you would have never have thought of'

Anyway enough from my end enjoy yourself and i wish you the best of luck

Blake.




P.S. From your 'friendly!!!' Reptile enthusiast.

Good on you!! What right do others have on imposing what they do or don't want their partners to do?? Mind you I'm not trying to suggest it's the same thing if they're hitting swingers clubs or hitting on pros :lol: You've got to be flexible in a relationship/marriage, otherwise it's ta-ta :lol:

Hi welcome to APS. Great choice with getting a woma as a first snake. They really are so much fun. I now have two myself and plan on getting more in the future. Very, very addictive.

 

[JosPythons]

Welcome to your new addiction (and sorry......but there's no cure). This is a fantastic site for information, pointers and just general chit chat about our love of reptiles.....enjoy, and again, welcome

I'm not trying to suggest it's the same thing if they're hitting on pros :lol:

What if your partner is a pro, moosey?!

 

[moosenoose]

I think there's probably plenty of people out there who have met their partners through work. I suppose then you have no excuse not knowing what line of work they were in before you got involved :lol: So it'd be okay

 

[Khagan]

What if your partner is a pro, moosey?!

And how does that work? Do you have to still pay or...?

 

[imported_Varanus]

And how does that work? Do you have to still pay or...?

On the house, I would assume...or "put it on my tab".

 

[AirCooled]

Welcome to APS,but a friendly warning about Woma's,they are very addictive,one turns into two quickly...

 

[Xeaal]

Welcome and congratulations! What an awesome trade you made - bet the woma is sooo cute; you really must post photos

 

[Woma_Wild]

thanks everyone.
For now I will try to stop at one. I want to enjoy her on her own for a while. Not to mention that I have a lot to learn.
