Other Pets
 
Anyone here have other non-fish/dog/cat pets? Just curious... wanted to hear about how much people like their iguanas, rabbits, ferrets, whatever.. and how hard the upkeep is ;)

My oldest daughter had a California King snake for about 2 yrs ... grew to 4 ft long ... pretty good temperment for a snake really ... only advice is get a 10G tank to feed it in so it gets used to eating in there ... if you feed it in the main tank you wont be able to put your hand in without fear he will strike at it thinking it is food :eek: ( really bad eyesight but excellent sense of smell ) ... they actually hunt/kill rattlers in the wild as food :cool:

Cirtron Crested Cockatoo (Rupert - after our favourite Survivor). Kind of messy, but fun to have around. Talks some, but only when he feels like it (has cat's blood or something). :biggrin: Used to have 21 birds & 5 cages in our basement suite, along with 7 sm-med.sized fw aquariums. Now just Rupert & 4 SW (20g, 33g, 35 Hex, 100g). Less expensive to keep Rupert (corals & SW fish is like paying for a cocaine habit, eh) :razz: :lol:
