:i know that 99.9% of you didnt start out with venomous snakes...but after you got your first venomous snake did you feel at all like owning normal snakes was "worth it"...i have been told that once you start keeping venomous your only going to want to keep venomous...and i see the attraction...but is it true for anyone here...

:also venomoid keepers...after you got your first venomoid did you decide to ditch the venomous and just keep venomoids...

:thanks...

Good Question Chris. I have kept nonvenemous since I was about 10 I am going to be 29 this month, I have kept HOTS for around the last 10 yrs. I love my boas and wouldn't give them up for the world. I also really like my HOTS and I would hate to part with them too. I got my first venemoid this yr. I like him and he is cool but I wouldnt make all of my stuff venemoid because I enjoy the animals for what they are. I dont just have them so I can "play" with them.
