Ok, so you all don't immediately jump me, I have been keeping reptiles for almost 20 years, yes I have time and money to blow on this, have given it tons of thought, and reasearch, more thought more reasearch, more reasearch(you get the idea). I'm not looking to get rich or even break even, just want the experience and to breed toward some cool morphs that would take me forever to afford. And yes I don't mind waiting a few years to get them. Now on to the immediate issues at hand.

First thing is that i have reached a caging dilemma. In short I'm outta room, and at the last show I attended two different people had some nice ARS 7030 racks for sale, one for 1800 and two for 1500. One of those people also had a 7010 available for 750. First thing i need to know is if this is a good price on any of these for used.

Second, unless i get a bunch of adults somewhere, I will not start breeding until next season, and only on a limited basis then. I,m kinda wondering if getting one of these racks is overkill for someone just starting out, as that money could be used to get more of the base morphs for the things I want to make. Just thinking I might be better off building my own racks like I was going to before spotting these, thus leaving more cash for future breeding stock.

Anyway, just looking for some opinions, and wondering if there are any obvious flaws in my current plans. Thanks for any input. Shawn H.
