Snake keeping mid life crisis is it right?

[Graylord]

Im 45 later this month and i`m about as enthusiastic about this hobby as any as i`ve ever been .

Only been doing this for 18 months ,is this a mid life crisis ,should i give up and get myself an Alfa GTV rocking chair and a pipe all things i`ve considered ,is ther any other recently converted rep keepers?

Is it right for an old codger like me to be into this hobby as it seems to me the majority are gothy barey out of nappy types

I'm a recently converted 33 year old (today), but no idea what goes through the mind of grandads of 45???

Age is immaterial. At the reptile club I'm part of there's an OAP that's just got her first snake, a royal

That's me. I'm bloody ancient at 56. It takes me all night to do once what I once used to do all night. It's a good job my mental age is 12. Mid -life crisis? I'll let you know when I get there.Harry

It is growing this hobby isn`t it ,my only worry is if it grinds to a halt ...suddenly.

Jobs comforter or what eh

It`s been an eye opener for me since i`ve joined this group .

I feared i was a sad old duffer doing what i should have done in my twenties and thirties.

( getting married and bringing children up instead at the time)

Its heartening to know there is others of my age group actively engaged in the hobby.

And even those who are only twenty one(Roewaami ) that feel they can invade my oldies thread.

I keep trying to convince my old man to get into it as he used to have an interest when he was younger. Last time I spoke to him about it he was raving on about marine tropical fish . Nearly there but not quite .
