What kind of BP owner are you?

I voted Casual owner. I bought my first ball python a year ago this month and now have 4 snakes total with the plan to purchase another ball at the upcoming Tinley park NARBC show. I would love to step into the realm of breeding in the future and if all goes well, I should be able to.

I clicked serious collector, as i have several morphs (bee, lesser,pin) and not produced a egg yet. Hoping for 2 clutchs this comming season, Flexwatt and stats on order for my next rack and 'bator figured I would get set up for the next half dozen first. hoping to pick up pied, axan and Bl. Past. to throw in my mix over the next year or so.

I am a hobbyist breeder myself, currently with 13 ball pythons in my collection (plus a couple that are available for sale). They are pets first, and breeders second. And I love doing local educational shows whenever I have time . . . never hurts to get a more positive spin on snakes where I'm at--still lots of people that think they are "scary".

I voted serious breeder because I one day hope to get to do this for a living but as of right now this past season was my very first season. I produced 7 clutches so not a huge amount but should double that this yr. I have about 40 adult breeder bp's of all different morphs and normals. Then I have about 18 babies. They are whats left of the 7 clutches I produced.

I haven't owned snakes since I was 16. Now after over 15 years, I've picked up a 2010 (July to be exact) Spider male, and have a 2010 (August) Bumblebee female arriving in a few weeks.

I am up to five Ball Pythons and my sons Anery Corn snake. Hopefully by this time next year, I will have ten Ball Pythons and maybe three Corn snakes.

I own 3 Ball pythons right now and will be breeding my Het Pieds as soon as they are old enough...

I chose casual breeder, I currently have 8 ball pythons and will have a few pairings this coming season as follows....

Mojave (gold blush type) x CH Normal Poss. Granite
Mojave (gold blush type) x Normal
?????? x Mojave (could use some ideas on this one but not looking to produce bel's)
(these next 2 providing my cinny het pied gets to size**fingers crossed**)
Cinny het pied x Het Pied
Cinny het pied x Normal(Picking her up soon(holding back all PH female cinnys)

More still to come before the seoson gets going.

I am just a casual owner! I have 2! I probably will never breed. In fact, I purposely make it a point to only buy males so that I'll never be tempted to breed! I'd probably do a breeding loan with a hatchling as payment, but I have 3 kids and I'm a single mom. I don't think I have time for breeding!

I have a female normal, female pastel, and male spider. I am going to try and make a bumblebee at some point in the next couple of years.
