Dr. Seward's viedo is a very good resource for the beginner and the advanced alike. It's worth whatever it costs, IMO.

It's about 70$ for the dvd and 80$ for the vhs. That's one of the few times i've seen a vhs cost more than a dvd.

Probably because you can copy VHS alot easier than you can a protected DVD. I'd want people to pay more if I knew they might copy it.

Actually, I think it's easier to copy a DVD.
Up to date computers have all the hardware you'll need to do the job.
All you need is the will power.
Last time I checked, DVD's aren't protected.
They're just dual layered.
Yet, I have no clue what so ever how to copy a VHS, and I'm sure it involves hardware that I don't already have.
The reason for them pricing the VHS more, would probably have to do with the fact that you can fit many hours onto one DVD, unlike VHS which is probably a few tapes.

you should try getting a book about ball pythons because when i got a book about corn snakes it showed how to breed and tips so maybe it will be the same for ball pythons.
oh yea they are only like 12-15 bucks

1. Go get yourself The Ball Python Manual. I paid $9.99 for mine about ten years ago. I wouldn't think it would cost you more than $15.00 now.
2. Read it.
3. Go get yourself an adult pair of ball pythons and breed them.
Hands on. It also helps to have someone who has done it before around to ask for advise, but you don't have to. Other than that if given a proper environment breeding comes naturally.
The next thing you'll know. You'll be wondering about incubators. :D Good luck.

I totally agree with Jack_Hammer .... "The Ball Python" manual was released in 1993 and is still the basis of what I do to breed my ball pythons today!
As for why Dr. Sewards videos cost more, it's because DVD's are cheaper to buy than VHS tapes in bulk and the mass production process (repro-ing the media, packaking, etc) is far cheaper if you do it with DVD's. The companies that mass produce DVD's, CD's and VHS tapes are tying to phase out VHS production and are charging a lot more (relatively speaking) for it do dissuade people from using it as an option.
