How Many BP Do You Have

Stuck on 12:rage:

None yet :O

This thread was started back in 2008? Still a good one!

I jumped off the cliff this year and decided after getting laid off from my job to get into breeding reptiles full time, I actually started two years ago. My plan was to switch in another three years but getting laid off is speeding things up!!

As for ball pythons I have 22 females I'm breeding this year, 8 males (7 are being bred) and four females too small to breed this year, two of those should be ready next year (including my pinstripe pied female!). So 34 ball pythons total. Hope to have a lot more when things start hatching out!

I also have a pair of dwarf / super dwarf retics that I'm hoping will produce this year and are paired up right now. Also have 5 king snakes that are breeding size but I'm getting out of that project. Looking for more cool ball python projects all the time, I like the Axanthics from JD that are similar to the Stormtrooper lines, have my eye on some Highway / Freeway projects, also want to get more Clown and Pied stuff, I'm really interested in the Panda Pied project. It's such an awesome time to get into breeding ball pythons, there are so many morphs out there that you can find several niches to work in. I'm trying to find really cool morphs that I don't see at local shows so I can bring some variety to town!

Starting in 2018 I'm going to get a table at several reptile shows including NARBC and Repticon, assuming I have a successful year breeding!

one ball python

Just one, and as a busy college student, he's more than enough for me:P

bad choices. obviously the huge majority is going to be in the first category. not enough variety. I have 5

albino pinstripe
albino
pastel champagne het albino
lesser het clown
pastel calico yellowbelly

I'm kind of weirded out by having a huge collection of them, unless you're a breeder making a living off of it. just seems kind of weird to me. that said I hope to breed some of mine eventually and its going to be hard to let the babies go. by that time I hope to have a rack system so ill likely keep all the babies (I read its common for 1st time mothers to only lay 2-3 eggs)

Only one, and looking forward I think I'd only want a max of three ball pythons anyways. I want to branch out into different kinds of snakes at some point, starting with a russian rat snake. My roommate's super interested in tegus, but that's a whole different ballgame lol.

I currently have 2 and my GF has one. So we have 3 total. We have a normal male, banana pastave male, and a BEL(super lesser possibly pastel, spider, and/or GHI) female. I am trying to talk my GF into letting me get another female in December when we go to a reptile expo. We are already planning on picking up a female western hognose if we find one we love.

Not quite 20. Even if you count the ones I'm taking care of for other people it only comes out to 18.

I'm happy with the size of my collection. It's small enough to be manageable, but large enough that I have all my favorite morphs and I'll be able to make a lot of great combos. Gonna be hard not to keep all those babies.

Could stand to take on a few more colubrids or rosys, but I think I've found my sweet spot with the BPs.
