Reptileexperts- I know what you mean, we just moved and my animals were at our old apartment for about 2 weeks before I moved them over. It was such a relief to get them all in one place. I hope your new setup works well for you. Didn't you say (a few months back) that you were focusing your collection down to some select retics / morphs? How many animals do you have now, if you don't mind me asking? (just curious how many you're fitting in your new smaller space).
Serpentsteve- Nice looking tics! I love goldenchilds.
Expensive Hobby- Wow... Is that the permanent arrangement? How do you access the cages behind the vision rack? That's a lot of snakes in a small space.

Re: Pics of tics
It's not permanent lol. And it's not 100% of the collection either. But the freedom breeder 66-6 moves against the stack of 4 footers and we can access the other 6 footers behind it.
I'm actually looking for a commercial space, or at the minimum a new home to buy that has a very large shop on the property.

I'm still working on the cut down - time is becoming the largest constraint so I want to be able to focus on my main passions so its always about that aspect, and never a burden. I have only downsized about 3 adult retics at the moment, as well as a good bit of my colubrids, this was my last season breeding them. I use to be focused in 50% SD projects, and now I seem to be wanting to work more with Jampea after watching what happens with color when you do various things with them. As well as Seslayer a bit. Dwarf Lavender Sunstripes are on the list to be made here, as are Dwarf Purple Albino Goldenchilds (or Lav if my GC proves het white this winter). Hopefully I prove out my 75% Jampea to be het snow (het anery, 66% het albino) as well as my goldenchild (het albino, 50% het anery) and produce 62.5% Jampea Snow Goldenchild Tigers, and variations there of. Outside of these, the rest are just pets at this point. 3 main females, 2 main boys. May dabble with my SD stuff for one more season, but life is insanely busy these days. Heck, I waited months and months and MONTHS for Destiny to come out on console, and my fiancé shows up on my birthday with an xbox one and Destiny last month, and I've been able to play . . . twice? and no more than 20 combined minutes of gameplay!! Ain't nobody got time for that!

It amazes me every time I see it, exactly how intelligent Retics look. I'll leave owning them to you guys though, I don't think I could ever handle a giant python and not feel a good degree of fear!
