    I don't know if you have issues, but you obviously have more disposable income than I do.

    I always think I'd love to have a collection that numerous, until I start thinking about housing babies.

    I'm happy with one, maybe two spectacular pairs of a couple species (though I've gone a bit further with cresties).

    maybe....Hoarding is a kind of OCD thing right?
    I think the basic question is: are you wrecking your life or going into debt? If you aren't, then you're simply 'collecting' ;-)

    Now with all of those guys and gals if you took each one out of it's enclosure and for example let's say a rack, held each one in your left hand for exactly 1 minute then switched it off to your right hand for exactly 1 minute, then returned it to the bin and slid the bin in and out exactly 5 times before moving to the next and repeated the same proceedure for each one only after washing your hands thoroughly for 2 minutes and then threw away that bar of soap and opened a new each time before washing again...yeeeaah...then it's OCD.

    Otherwise I'd say you just like collecting snakes.

    Addicted and in love! I found myself saying the other day, "Well, we only have 3 ball pythons". Maybe if snakes weren't such cool, fascinating, amazing creatures, we all wouldn't have this problem! :)

    If it makes you feel any better, we are looking to move to a 3 bedroom apartment or house, just so we can get more snakes.

    But it's a great world to be a part of!
