This is getting ridiculous

Whenever I think about acquiring a snake or breeding a pair, I plan on spending a minimum of $100 per snake for housing.

Luckily for hatchlings etc, it's cheaper per animal, and housing is re-usable after you sell off an animal, so it's an investment that breeders do get returns from.

I did electric reptair fer most of my life,usinga soldering iron is second nature..... ne way melting the plastic was the fastest and easiest way fer me..... also using enough flux paste shure makes life easier(flux helps the solder flow, to much stuff wont stick, not enough it just clumps up and doesnt flowdown through the wire just blobs on top)
