Hello, My name is Tania and I'm an addict.

I blame you all and this board for my addiction. For making me try so hard and whipping me into submission. I now have 2 beautiful and healthy snakes and about to get a 3rd. Yes, me, getting a 3rd. I'm getting a GTP in the next couple of months but I fear that this is hardly going to satisfy my addiction.

My absolute max is 3 snakes. So how do I cope with this raging clue of an addiction after I get #3? I need tips and maybe even a big sister to call when I'm driving by a herp shop and feeling weak.

Do you have your 2 bps in cages or in a rack?
Racks dont take up that much actual floor space. Like 2' x 3'. And you can stack them up to the ceiling.
Maybe i shouldnt have said that lol....:rolleye2:

hahaha!!! I have them in cages. No rack for me. I will not entertain that notion!! No, 3 is my limit not so much because of space constraints, but because my tolerant husband might file for divorce otherwise. I'm already getting the GTP "behind his back" so to speak. He knows it's coming... he just doesn't realize how soon. Mwahahahahaaaa!!!!!

I also want to be able to provide for all my pets comfortably and keep money aside for emergency vet visits should they ever arise. I don't want my time and money to be spread too thin, kwim? Nope, 3 is *it* for me, I'm afraid.

But, [deleted], why does snake keeping have to taste like pringles!!

oy vey....

You should "accidentally" pair your fire and super pastel to make some "accidental" fireflies.;)
If he doesnt melt at the site of baby bps then he has no soul lol

Nah, it is easy to stop at 3...

If he knew how much "designer" GTP can sell for he'd probably want me to get more...

I would breed them "accidentally" if I didn't already see so many people on craig's getting rid of their snakes... kills me. So maybe I shouldn't add to the snake over population. Now... if they only laid 1 or 2 eggs then ....

You say that 3 is your limit now.... Just wait. You'll have 6 before the end of the year!

I don't think all the snakes on craigslist are fireflies or really any morphs for that matter. There are a ton of normals out there though.

Trust me, the addiction doesn't stop at 3!! I'm on my 7th, but I also have a rack :)

I said I'd stop at 2...and I now have 13, with a new 12-slot rack on order for my breeder females and holdbacks! It never ends, might as well embrace it, lol! As to the pastel and fire cross, absolutely! My last purchase was a 2012 firefly girl; great looking morph, those and a great combo animal to have if you decide to breed and sell to offset your addiction. :D

uh.... I'm sorry... but do firefly's really go for $1k ???!!! Seems strange.

I just did a quick google search and that's the first price I came up with. Maybe it's just someone missing a few screws or something.
