what can i buy with USD33,000?

I'll sell you my collection. You pay for all permits and shipping and my snakes are yours. $33k plus permits and shipping. I think I can live with that! ;)

The fact that he just releases animals into the wild at a whim tells me he should not breed any animals especially not humans... Sickening stuff :(

Hi,

That's kind of a blanket statement though.

For all you know these were wild collected burmese who have never been exposed to any other reptile pathogens.

It's not something I would have chanced but, without knowing even the basic facts, I'm not going to condem someone out of hand.

If I did I would have to condem everyone who takes in garters and corns at reptile rescues, gets them back to health, and then releases them.

lots of female normals that are ready to breed and lots of base morphs and visual recessives pretty much thats wat i would get

From the questions Ive seen you ask it seems to me anyways that you are still learning with your first. I don't suggest going out and spending a ton of $ and getting all these beautiful morphs. I
Just answered a thread by you yesterday were you've had your snake for a couple of weeks, it's stressed and not eating and you were trying to figure out the problem. Imagine that on a much larger scale. Breeding is so much more than putting 2 snakes together. Everything is involved. Start slowly. Get your frist snake going and on a schedule before really stressing yourself out. And learn as much as you can before hand. That being said..... Please don't be offended that's just my take on things and if you are interested is breeding I suggest doing as much research as possible on the subject. If your goal is killer blasts then get what you need to make killer blasts. Get one pair Going really well and add on to that. Incubating is another tricky thing that causes Many people stress every year. Try incubating with one or two clutches and see how your first clutch goes. Just my .02 c start slow and aim for the stars!

Maybe so, but someone that barely knows how to take care of one ball then decided to make a business out of it in a few days makes me think my original statement is correct. He was using the Burmese pythons as an example that he had knowledge about snakes. I used to catch about 50 garter snakes back when I was 12. I am pretty sure, I wasnt ready to start breeding ball pythons at that point. The fact that he used these snakes as an example of his knowledge and then the same day tosses these animals in the bush is probably one of the most moronic things I have seen posted in quite some time. But I respect your stand to be respectful to the OP, I am not quite so PC with certain individuals :)

Heres an idea, total shot in the dark, but how about keeping YOUR PET that you agreed to keep and care for. You knew how big they get now accommodate yourself or sell it. Dumping it will ruin your rep with real hobbyist and be hard if not impossible to sell other snakes your hatching

No, I want you to leave wild animals in the wild. If you do take them out of the wild, keep them as pets. You dont grab wild animals, keep them until your bored and then release. You show absolutely no compassion for animals. You treat them like bloody rocks for your garden. As such, I will be honest and I think you should move away from animals and collect something else. Animals deserve respect and care, they arent beanie babies. They are not simply collectables. If you are getting into them for money alone, I think you should move on because that is not fair to the animals.

The reason I speak up is because I love ball pythons and all snakes. It really sadens me when people dont respect them, an give them the time, patience and care they deserve. If your offended, I understand. All I want is for you to really think about the animals.
