    It's like the sign I saw at Tinley. "For an additional $4.95, we will provide a second receipt for your purchase that shows the price you told you wife you paid for your purchase."

    The other one I like is: "My biggest fear is that I'll die, and my wife will sell my Snakes for what I told her I paid for them...."

    I've just floated the idea to my significant other that I'm wanting another boa. Nothing really expensive and I never have to hide costs or anything, but it's going to be a process. I've already whipped out the chapstick. Let the ass kissing begin!!

    My sister is my "partner" in this venture and is the Money Authority. She is my gatekeeper. Luckily, she understands that there are certain snakes that passing them up is silly. The girl in question here literally saves me 3-6 years of grow time on subsequent generations. So it was a no brainer despite wanting reassurances.

    We're (6) Snakes in, ranging from under $100 to now over 4 figures, but we've got a good spread growing. She already knows that the next couple of buys will be "cheaper" animals, as I'm in the market for some Het Clown females around the time Tinley is here again.

    I just purchased my second 4 figure snake for my projects, but I plan on making that back in the next year.

    I won't make mine back nearly so quick as I'm buying a hatchling, but if I'm going to breed snakes, I want to make sure what I'm producing has value and will be wanted. Similar boat to you, I know.

    I'm going to come and get some Het Clown girls from you before much longer. :)

    Deposit is in, and here she is. This is a breeder picture;

    Truffle. The Super Banana Black Pastel 100% Het Hypo little girl. She is *possibly* Pastel, but breeder isn't sure. I don't care too much either way, but we'll see what she produces in a couple years.

    :D

    Thanks for being a "bad" influence on me, forum team! :D

    Just like the song Thunderstruck. You knew once you entered here you would be struck with the urge to move forward. LOL

    What a stunner!
