NOT ENUFF FOR THAT FOR SURE
Your mom is justly worried because she doesn't want to be saddled with your pets. Since you live in her house, it's her rules. I wouldn't add any more animals and would begin either farming the best of the best out on long term breeding loans and sell the rest.

If you do long term breeding loans, make certain it's in writing and for enough time. You might want to put in a clause for a sale if you stay with the Marines.

A 'couple years' is not a lot of time to get a bunch of live animals all situated. My personal advice would be go ahead and sell them off and concentrate on the Marines.

Don't join the Marines. Keep the snakes...and the girls.
You're 18, don't waste your life. There ARE other options.

dont get merried just to be able to keep snakes a lot of young marines make the mistake getting merried to young and it doesnt work out. and depending on your unit you might deploy a lot too.my end of service is in a year and im starting my collection now slowly i have one ball python and am gonna get one more snake before i get out. wont be getting more until i do get out. just a heads up the marine life is not really flexible at all for your lifestyle its actually the complete opposite. you could be stationed at one base and you could get sent somewhere else a year into your enlistment.

I am glad I made that decision, although it sucks really bad starting from scratch again. I was only in 4 years but managed to do 3 deployments and most my time back was spent in sniper school or other training available. Just sell them off, unless you have 100% trust in a friend or someone to keep and maintain your collection for you.

What MOS are you looking to get?...if you know yet.
