IM NOT TARGETTING Mr Kid!!! - you are probably older than me and might even have more years with reptiles as a interest

But his add made me think of myself 10 odd years ago.
When I learned about snakes and realised they can be kept in captivity I started with a bang.
Keeping everything I could find in the veld and everything cheap at a petshop.
I ended up with a variety of animals from Brown water snakes to Mozam spitters. (I lived in Natal at that stage)
Soon after a while I could not manage the amount of animals and their specific diets and several fell ill and started dying so I released animals and would catch "fresh" ones...
My point being, it is wonderfull the variety of animals we have in SA, but one must realise and it happens so often that you tend to loose interest in some species and you end up with animals few or no one would want, thus you end up killing them or releasing them.
So please for everybody that is out there that love ALL indigenous reptiles...(especially first timers) keep in mind what you really like and is 'keepable', and only keep those not all the 'cool' ones.
Again the add only made me think of myself many moons ago... Im not targetting Mr Kid, infact all those species are kept and bred in captivity but the Psammophis species need VERY(huge) special cage requirements.
I believe there are people on the forum that would gladly help you with some of the animals.
