Yeah she wasn't keen on the idea of getting a snake at all when I first brought it up, as she had (possibly still has) a bit of a fear of snakes. But with persistance she eventually gave it the green light and we got a Tanami Woma back at the start of February. He's been fantastic and now the missus has no trouble with him at all, she confident and calm with him, so it's helped with her fear too. I was gonna get a bredli but did my research and once I read up about womas there was no other option for me.
I reckon the same thing has happened with roughies, I initially wanted a jungle for our second snake but having read up about these guys I reckon I want a rough scaled as much as I wanted a woma!
Won't happen for a while, as we want to make sure we are capable of looking after one, let alone two snakes but once we are then I'll be on roughie lookout for sure!
