    Didn't even notice he was interested in other snakes, not that I read it I second this!
    Also a colony of leos would be fun as well, base morph leos are under a 100 now a days.
    Also you might want to set some of that aside for cages/racks and feeding/breeding feeders.

    I'd do some home maintenance and pay off a few loans.

    Then I'd find out how much a super cinnamon runs.

    Make sure your committed when you buy a snake your in it for the long haul. 20-30years so I read. Start off small see if it grows on you. 1 to 4 snakes is easier to get rid of then racks. I'm new myself but I have a feeling these breeders aren't keeping ALL of there inventory unsold from previous years. There would be more of a overstock which it seems there are. People throwing snakes on you at the shows etc. trying to get you to get this one that one.

    On a good note, I see myself owning these if I had the change:
    BP
    Spider Ball
    Clown
    Pastel
    lemon bumblebee
    normal
    woma

    Boas
    Rainbow
    Red Tail


    I don't believe in the tiny spaces. I like to see them have room. I would build a shelf 9'lx2'wx6'h for 4'x2'x2' areas for 8 tanks 48x18x18 or whatever tanks.

    I'd start a grande terre or GTxtype E henkel cross leachianus gecko project. 2.2 and caging would be do-able with 4k, and possibly even more.

    Though there are a couple snakes on the wishlist, I have the funds for them already and am just waiting for the right ones to pop up on my radar.

    If I were to start up a BP breeding group with 4k, I'd do what I could to get a head start on a desert-pastel-fire project.. Maybe a desert male, a pastel female, a few normal females, caging, and incubator? I'm unsure on desert prices nowadays.

    I have been keeping snakes and lizards for about 2 1/2-3 years and I know the commitment involved.

    1.) Angolan Python:rolleyes:

    2.) Adult Female - Agentine Boa :gj:

    2.) Adult Female - Dumeril's Boa:banana:


    I would pray for a resource to allow me to have a Normal Red Full Grown Burmese Python, with a hired keeper :rolleye2::rolleye2::rolleye2::taz:
