havnt quite grasped how to resize images to fit screen yet as you can see!lol!

If you use photobucket you can resize on there very easily - just resize to 'large' is what I do...when I remember

You've a lovely little collection going on there. ATB's really rock and I love Akitas, Japanese and American! Cool dogs.

why thank you very much... not really used to this posting caper but will try that on photobucket, cheers.

and yea to think this time last year i had no animals and have now ended up with this lot. def an addictive little hobby!

It sure is! We used to have a pretty reptile collection a couple of years ago, being sensible and all that. Now it's completely out of control...the reps have most of the house and we've got a corner of it!

haha tbh if i could get away with it i would prob be the same but the OH has put the foot down, shes not really into the snakes like, more fear than anything else i think so its a 1 in 1 out policy at the min but i think im wearing her down, few things i have my eye on and lots of pretty pics help!lol!

Maybe that's a good thing! My OH is just as into them and likes to spend money on them just as much as I do....a seriously dangerous situation for our bank account!

well your right there like can be quite expensive and very easy to get carried away... so many nice things out there and every day nearly ya see sumin ya just have to have.
tho iv found if i dangle a nice pair of shoes in her direction i can usually get what i want, just means my bank gets hit twice as hard!

ooooh....shoes.
I never buy clothes or shoes anymore. That's what going to Haam at least once a yr does to you
The OH even got onto me and said I've nothing decent in my wardrobe anymore except horse riding stuff (which I get free from him!). SO need to stop splurging on snakes for a while and buy some clothes

I tried the whole wearing the other half down bit but I think I've burned that one out

That's a super collection you've built up, loving the ATB and fair play to you for handling it.

Loving the ATB. It's practically edible. Also, gotta love the rat snakes. Beautiful animals. I have to say mind you, i always thought Akita had a slight mischievous, evilness look to them & you've confirmed it, yours has flippin lasers coming out of its eyes

Can I ask what your phone is, N8 by any chance?

thank you very much.... yea the ATB is the pride of the collection at the minute like but they are all great... super friendly bar that crazy horse but its usually all show.

and yea i was a bit dubious about getin an akita to start with tbh cos id heard a few scare stories and i know a few boys alot bigger than me that couldnt handle theirs but mines such a big softie, def all in the training like... he was in boot camp from day 1.
and also hes a terminator dog as you can see, he was sent back from the future to protect john connor so he has some good in him.lol!

and yea it is an n8, wasnt sure about mentioning brand names on here but i tell ya what they are lethal phones and cam is excellent!

was thinking the same about handling the ATB.

Super collection.
Have you anything else your looking for to get in the near future ?

cheers mate, she(i think) only gets touched if i have to, had her out doin a bit of work in her viv so snapped a few pics, shes surprisingly calm for a bit then strikes at everything tho i think its all show cos im yet to be tagged.

fancy a wee hoggie, yellow annie and a san fran garter in the near future then down the line i would like to have a crack at burms or retics but they are a long long way off yet!

lol my female boa would be like that she is ok for a few minutes then just goes mad and strikes at anything that moves.

Yea the big snakes are alot of work which is why I'm sticking to only tow boas and the rest are small

yea ya roughly have about 10 mins before the crazy kicks in with her!lol! if ya show no fear ya seem to be ok but if ya hesitate your fecked!lol!

and yea dont have the space or the skill for the big boys yet gona practice with the boas and i really want a yellow annie(cos i like snakes with a bit of crazy in them) and they are a good stepping stone i would think...
if i can hack them alrite then mabye just mabye il go for something scary but as i said its a few years off yet
