My love of reptiles has came from growing up in the Leicestershire countryside and hearing stories of the elusive European adder being spotted on the local country park. The media hyped stories of a poor pet Labrador having to be flown by air ambulance to the nearest hospital holding anti venom. But the sheer lack in numbers of UK native herps probably has had an effect on the hobby from lack of exposure to reptiles and lack of education at a young age.
Well, it started when I was younger and it was kind of by accident. I was volunteering at a pet shop and one of the managers asked me if I wanted a pet. My mom was totally against any pets. At the time I had really wanted a Bearded Dragon.
