If you've done the research go ahead. Make sure you've got your setup and temps spot on before you purchase the animal.
If you ever need advice feel free to PM me.

Are you even allowed to get your licence as a 14 year old? Also, are your parents as keen on having the snake around as you are... ALSO do you know the actual prices of GTPs and their setups? These aren't a $100 coastal you can keep in a $10 tub with a $20 heat cord. If you aren't earning the money to pay for the animal, I hope you have VERY supportive parents otherwise your venture may end right there
My view point is a pet animal is a commitment for life. But others dont hold this view, so I won't post that as either a for or against
I would merely recommend if you havent already... having a very very frank and open discussion with your parents about this snake. And I would hope at least one of your parents shares your enthusiasm or it will make life very hard indeed.

please do tell what area a bearded dragon would be hard to keep ? enlightin us with your experience, just out of interest didnt u just get your first snake ?People recommend Beardies as first reptiles as well. :| Depending on where you live Beardies can be very hard to keep!.
REGARDLESS of what we all think n say ,he in the end will get what he wants ...
Gah! I strongly disagree.Depending on where you live Beardies can be very hard to keep!
Hahaha what are you talking about? Have you kept both these species? No? Then how can you compare?I'm sorry, but Spotted Pythons are 1000000 times easier to keep. They dont require a special humidity level, and give 'em a water dish, hide and heat mat and they're good. But GTP's need special humidity levels, special heat requirements and housing requirements. Also, the majority are NOT good for handling. But if you really do think you can handle it. Well..... I guess we cant really stop you...
REGARDLESS of what we all think n say ,he in the end will get what he wants ...none of us know if he is only interested in the GTP due to it being a PRETTY colour or wether he actually has an over all keen interest in the animal itself ...you have been told by some people that OWN gtps THEY ARE THE ONES that can give you the FULL heads up on how to care and what to expect ..the others that comment that dont own one or have never looked after one are only either recycling the care fact pages or GOOGLE KINGS N QUEENS ...take advise off the actual owners and go from there .
If you were my kid, and it was me buying the GTP, I'd definitely be telling you to get a carpet for a year or two first, and keep planning/saving for the GTP...

Well said ... but it would not be the same with out those into their 3rd week of owning their first reptile offering GTP care advice or posting complete crap in every thread that pops up
