I have a bit of a cheeky question to ask. Laughing

I am really keen on expanding my knowledge beyond that of Royals and Ratsnakes. I generally only tend to research the animals I have, and although I have had a fair bit of handling experience for my age and the length of time I have been keeping reptiles, there are still many many species I would love to get the chance to work with, and without a little help, I don't think I will for a looooooong time Laughing

So here's my question, would any of you lovely, lovely people be kind enough to let me invade your house and work with you for a day with your collection? Im aiming this at those of you with the larger collections. I am not overly fussy about the species, although preferably not a whole collection of Corns or Kings, as I've got experience with the former, and have a friend who has many of the latter. Laughing I would love to see some of the Royal morphs, as many people have such strong opinions of whether it is right or wrong, and to be honest, alot of people never get the chance to see them in the flesh and so can't appreciate them, but I am not entirely sure of my views.

I realise that it is a bit of an ask, considering none of you know me, but I feel that without the help of a few well informed, decent keepers, I won't get the chance for a very long time to work with the animals I want to, as there is no way I could keep many of them myself. I don't mean to be rude, but as they say, if you don't ask, you don't get Laughing

Any help would be very gratefully received Laughing It is probably worth pointing out this would be very helpful to my college course I am currently on *flutters eyelids* Im not a kid just after some free handling, I am genuinely interested in how different people do things, not to mention the variety of species that are being kept, that some people don't even know about.

Preferably peoples in the south/south east of England Laughing

Sorry if this is in the wrong place, feel free to move it Laughing

Thanks, and sorry its so long Razz

If your ever in the dorset area, we are always welcome to letting people work here for free, you will not only see a large collection, but how much Sh!t you have to clean up on a daily basis.

Let me know if we can help.
