    Big Gunns knows all about addiction. The "addiction" that some of his fans have for BG scares even him sometimes....although BG does understand it though.:D

    I'll believe that all the way. Ive heard of drug addicts losing everything to their habit but honestly i think the only thing that compares to this habit is a chronic gambler. I think my fish are getting jealous :rolleyes:

    You will get no help from me on that sister!!!

    I am soooo bad! My son got one in September and then I fell in love and got a Bee in Oct. Planning on a lesser or 2 in November. Oh and lets not forget about the racks that I am ordering.

    Good thing that I have a great "puppy dog look" that works on my husband!!! Because the money I make working at my son's school doesn't even begin to cover the money I am spending each month so far.

    And ya know......I can't just go for a spider or a pastel..no no..I gotta go straight to the more expensive morphs....lol I gotta have the lessers so I can make a BEL someday because although I got the "look" down there is NO WAY I can convince him to spend 3 grand on a BEL.

    Oh well....some girls like purses...some like shoes or clothes....I like snakes!!

    Re: This must be what illegal drugs are like..
    I'm in the same boat as everyone else! I got my first snake (normal BP) three years ago. I was fine until I found the most gorgeous Lesser I've ever seen a year ago, saying I just wanted one morph and I might breed them eventually...though not anytime soon....

    Yeah, um, I've bought nine additional BPs since April. o.O And of course, they're not the cheap morphs either. >.< I'm trying very hard to not buy any more until I get some offspring to sell. Not sure how long that's gonna last, though.... Sooo many people have gorgeous snakes I want!

    I KNOW I KNOW!!! Believe me i want that giant pastel or the saharan but now I need to check my finances again LOL.

    I was offered a great deal on a pair of recessives & a woma that I couldnt pass up. It was like one of those things where you know you shouldnt but you just have to.

    I get another rack in a week or so. As soon as i have the room im sure i'll be getting something else. I havent forgot about you guys!! :P

    Re: This must be what illegal drugs are like..
    I know the feeling I started with just rescued snake (5) and now I got 23 snakes andI just spent 55 bucks of rodents this afternoon and that not to feed them. tryingo t in crease the rodent out put so I cna try and save/make a buck so I can offset the care cost of the rodents. The only saving grace I got is I have a waiting list for rodents ( people buying from me ) once I can produce more than I need a week. cause ther only 2 pet shops left locally and at 6 bucks for their medium rats I need a loan every month to feed my snakes since i try keep the snakes on pups( small rats) and use the adult/large ones to keep slim the boa happy.


    Lucky mom also fell for he line they will pay /turn a profit once i can prove out the hets and make butters myself.

    Before I moved to Utah to be with my Fiance he got a normal BP and I alway teased him about feeding it to a cat.. Kept tellin him how much I COULDNT STAND snakes, they were useless, mean and just totally unpredictable... Now, I have my babies Jewels and Diamond that I love to death and have a total different outlook on snakes.. My christmas wish list consists of a piebald ball python and an axanthic(sp?)... They are way too addicting! I LOVE IT!
