    need some help, too indecisive

    Plan on getting my first ball and for months I've had my heart set on a lesser. Every time I got to a reptile show I end up falling in love with something else so my question is when it's time to make a real purchase should I go there and look for a lesser or whatever takes my breath away? lol


    btw, plan on getting one and only one snake

    ps- I was suppose to have a snake already but simply cannot make a choice

    I would go with what you want most. I know with other purchases i've made, I have "settled" and regretted it later. The tough part is finding what you want. LOL. Have fun!

    P.S. I just got a butter and their very close to a lesser so I vote that.

    Life is too short to own snakes that don't excite you everytime you look at them. Which for me, is every BP I see.

    There will always be something out there that you see and it will take your breathe away!
    So I would suggest you go with something that you really like, which sounds like a Lesser to me. Not sure what your budget is, but if you can afford it you should check out some Pastel Lessers!

    LOL yup. I know for us, our first was a year ago. Today our collection reached 13, which still is small compared to a lot of people on this site.

    You can't go wrong w/ a lesser. They are a beautiful morph.
    Do you have a budget? Sometimes a set budget can help make your final decision as some snakes are more expensive than others.

    P.S. I originally wanted only 1 snake at first too. Now I have a rack full. ;P
    They're like candy. You can't only have one flavor. lolol..

    Lol, I would stick with what you wanted originally, if you decided later you want another then you can always get one of the others = D

    Lesser's are a great choice if your deciding to only get one snake. They keep there color really well and i think they look better as they age. I would get a female just incase you decide you want to breed a couple years down the road.

    LOL i have been there many times in the past. We just got out Lesser and WOW!. pics and all just do no justice. just a suggestions, Skip the Shows, find a lesser online, so not to distract you from what you want. them go to shows after and look for your next one. because chances are there will be many "Next One"'s after this.
