Howdy Y'all

[alterna]

Originally from Big Bend, now living in Houston.
I've kept a myriad of herps: Crotalus lepidus lepidus, Agkistrodon contortrix pictigaster, A c contortrix, Crotalus molossus, Lampropeltis alterna, Lampropeltis triangulum celaenops to name a few of my old personal collection.
I worked at the Mouse Factory while at college, and there were a few herps at that office that I had the pleasure of helping with.
Anyway to make a long story short- I released most everything when I came here 12 years ago.
Now, I've been bitten by the bug and am thinking of starting up a small collection again(Right now just trying to remember everything forgotten).
So, I'll be lurking for a bit.

Welcome to the group. Glad to have another hot keeper!! We have alot of hot keepers in our yahoo group too. The Texas Reptiles venomous show is coming the first weekend in Nov.

Looks like we are coming...

Thank you for the welcome. I intend on doing a little window shopping, and see if any of my old acquaintances are at the show. Before the plunge is taken though, some display cases and husbandry tools are 1st on my list. I try to choose the herp(s) 1st, then build the cases, and lastly buy/collect(Mr. Queen taught me that order).

Oh yeah- Nice Tropidolaemus wagleri. One was offered to me(for free) once years ago, but she was a handful.

Glad to see I'm not the only one starting up again! Welcome!

Welcome aboard!

I thought Houston had a ordinance prohibiting the private possession of Hots???

[LadyViper]

Only in the city limits...You can still live in Houston Area. My mailing address was Houston.

[gbcop]

Ok, I wasn't sure. I knew you lived in the Houston Area, but didn't thought you lived in the city limits.

Thanks for the clarification!
