    I Probably Should've Done This Earlier lol...

    So I probably should have introduced myself a bit earlier, but hello everyone! I'm from Ohio, I've owned reptiles since I was 12 and ball pythons since I was 19 (I'm 32 now). I'm new to the breeding aspect of it, and a couple of months ago bought my first rack. I currently have one Normal female I've had since I was 19 (not breeding her lol) in a 40 gallon tank set-up, and 4 pied combos (3 female, 1 male) that are in the rack. 2 of the females and the male are babies, but one of the pied females will hopefully be ready next year. The avatar I'm using is actually one of my females, a black pastel pied

    I'm wanting to try and see if I can do this as a full-time hobby/career in the next 5-ish years, and I'm always looking for advice on improving what I'm already doing and expanding. Considering upgrading my current set-up to an ARS rack (and have the current one being a quarantine rack) and a couple of more bp's that'll hopefully be ready next year to really try and see if I can do this...Idk, I guess I'm trying to achieve the dream of being my own boss with something I love?

    Anyway, TL;DR I'm a long-time keeper who wants to be a full-time breeder and is along for the ride.

    Welcome !!

    If you’re gonna be breeding then learn as much as you can about snake genetics and keep abreast of the current ( ideally future) trends ..

    So many people breed from what they have in their collection and the offspring are rarely that desirable and certainly not sellable .
