Well, since I can't afford any morphs, I can't spend anything more than a few hundred dollars on one snake.....in fact, most of my BPs were free. 4/10 were rescue/adoptions, 2/10 I produced, 1/10 I got for $10 and the rest I bought for $50-$200....which is why I have to try to do breeding loans and/or buy hets and produce my own morphs....the rest i own only in dreamland, which is way too far for me to drive to...esp with the price of gas..:P!!!!

yeah, im a pretty lucky kid actually. my parents pay for all the feeders for my reptiles. i need to get a job next year when im 14.

Combined for all of my snakes I've paid approximately $1000...and a bit more for caging, tstat, food, supplies. The most expensive of the snakes were my adult females..specifically the poss het girl. (hopefully worth every penny) :) Not too shabby for a college student salary. Before the snakes my tortoise was the most expensive herp at $120.

That's the plan ;-p

I'm no 8ball but I have dropped close to your $20k mark on a single snake.

I recommend it to anybody, what a rush :gj:

For a pet? Not much, I'm a cheapskate.

For an investment? A lot, as long as I considered my odds good of making that back....


Would I keep a 20k snake as a pet if I ended up breeding him myself or he/she paid for themselves through breeding? yup :) BP's are cool



Most I would pay for a cat? Adoption fees at a shelter, there are way too many stray dogs and cats for me to justify paying people to breed them. (yeah I know, irony)
