    I had 7 within my first year of keeping BP's. 5 were normals (2 males, 3 females). Also got a male Spider and a male Pastel that first year. Eight years later I have a grand total of 14, and the only one I've kept this whole time is my Spider "Floyd"...

    Thanks everyone for contributing!
    I am a bit surprised at the numbers, actually. :cool: As of today (June 18th, 2014) the most, with 11 votes, is 4-6 snakes in one's first year.
    Awesome! I've got 2 months to catch up. :snake:

    I had 6 within a year. One in August 2012, 3 more added in September. Following April got another, and then July one more.

    I am up to 8 snakes now (and 3 lizards of various types!). I am totally happy with that we have now. I have 2 corns, 2 Cal kings, 2 milks (Pueblan and black) and 2 boa constrictors (1 pastel and 1 coral albino).

    I am aware most people IRL think I'm nuts. My husband is probably included in that at times; however, they are all well cared for and everyone has to have a hobby, right? My 4 kids LOVE our reptile pets, and I am happy we can share the fun together.

    I definitely had between 7-10 my first year. I remember I started out with my normal male Julius, thinking I wanted a male because they "stay smaller" and I "only wanted one". LOL.

    15 later :rolleyes: I'm actually surprised at my self control this past year! I haven't gotten ANY new additions since....August or September of 2012?! Wow....I'm due...all that doesn't include the miscellaneous other creatures I've acquired! Tarantulas are my weakness :D

    I'd be lying if I said I WASN'T looking at pieds and hoggies today. Anyone have any offers? ;)

    If I recall correctly I had 6 within 6 months and 9 or 10 at the year mark.

    Out of the 14 I have right now, 9 were produced by me, 4 were acquired in trades, and only one was purchased, and that's the Spider I posted above. Weird. I can't even remember the last time I bought one? I really need to fix that...

    It's really crazy how close the numbers are though!

    Re: Acquired Over Your 1st Year?
    Started at 1. Then another the next year. Then 2 years later 6 more. Then the year after 11 more. Then I bred. Sold a bunch. Have 25 currently.

    I got all my snakes except for the albino within my first year. Add 2 other balls and my first clutch of 6 to my SIG, minus the albino bci.
