Ball Python Addiction!!

I started mid 2010 and am already at 26 snakes and growing quickly. My girlfriend loves the snakes but poses a problem when I say Im gonna sell that one and I hear "you better not, I love him." She recently has been getting a little worried as I have pretty much been buying one snake every paycheck :)

So not until next year... turned into last friday. Picked up a 2010 Spinner Male and a 2009 Pastel Female. Couldn't find any female Lessers unfortunately, was looking for something 1000g and up, oh well. I'm excited all the same to have new additions to the fam. :)

In 2006 we bought oure first ball python and now we stopped counting :)

Haha, understatement indeed. I already picked up two more since I posted this and just got back from my breeder and put a female Lesser on hold. The "Rat" bill just keeps growing!

If I was in my own house and not an apartment I'd have more for sure, and probably branch out with different species...but I don't want to push my luck with my landlord lol.

I hear yah, I have slowly been turning a section of my basement into a snake room. I like a lot of other species as well, but I really like the temperment and size of the Ball Pythons... I really like some of the Boa's I have seen, but just so big - not sure if I am comfortable enough to keep them yet.
