    Who to sell to!!?????

    in two years i want to start breeding ball pythons.. my plan is to have the 2 ball pythons i have now which is 1 normal and one pastel both females.. and then a year from now im getting a male bumble bee and breed him to both of my females hoping to get a killer bee from the bee to pastel lol...

    my biggest fear about breeding is not being able to sell the off spring. i might hold some back like the killer be maybe a spider and a super pastel if i were to get those.. but id want to sell the rest.. but how do you do that with out putting up your own web page? because i wouldn't want to do that yet not until id be sure id make enough to pay for that on top of everything else...

    soo i gues my question is what other ways is there to sell them.. and to who? any ideas would be great! cuzz i really want to get into breeding but i don't want to get myself into a place where id have too many snakes .. and not enough money to take care of all them and myself..

    Faunaclassifieds. Determine how long you can keep them. If that time passes and all the snakes aren't gone, then go to local exotic shops and see what you can haggle.

    If you are personable, flexible and willing to sell and/or trade, it should work out good.
