He brought a boa to our son's classroom to pay for the sponsorship. Happy class.

They are upsetting the balance of the natural environment and eating, yes eating, peoples pets. They will even consume a small deer. Well, he has had the experience of a constrictor now, hopefully that's it and he will not want one as a pet. He is so cute in that pic.

He had to go into the hospital over night for something (I don't even remember) but he managed to smuggle his pet snake in there. He hid it under the sheet. The nurse came in to check something and when she pulled the sheet back, she saw that darned thing and screamed bloody murder. Nurses and doctors came running from everywhere. I was so embarrassed.........guess who had to take the snake home?............ughDarlenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16797132860053426517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6072583027504108914.post-52315193955919926722013-03-20T18:50:01.103-07:002013-03-20T18:50:01.103-07:00Eeek!
