What are the things you do to suppress the urge to buy a another snake :-)

[loonunit]

I run out of money! Seriously.

I had to promise my husband I wouldn't buy anymore snakes for 2 years. Which is keeping me out of calicos and sugars, which I guess is fine. And now I'm actually making snakes myself, so the numbers are still going up. But man, I really need some better males....

i recently acquired a bearded dragon to help with the urge. its helping but every time i walk into the reptile room i realize wow im missing something.

Nothing when I have the urge I just satisfy it, also when work on your own projects and hatch your own stuff the urge tend to be more under control .............kinda

See that's why I keep kind of thinking about breeding because I could use the money I make to put back into the snake. That way they'd pay for themselves!

Of course if I managed to produce an axanthic bee it'd be going nowhere.

I'm a big fan of setting limits. While I am in school, I know I can't handle many more than I have now (6). So, when I want to get something new or keep something from a clutch, I usually make myself find another to sell or rehome. It can get really hard, but usually my emotional attachment to my current snakes keeps me from going hog wild! Still, I suspect I will be up to 8 or so before I am actually finished.

That's easy , my wife , she said no more until she gets to get something for herself(not herp related). Trust me, she's Italian, Greek, and Portuguese, you don't want to tick her off! lol.

haha my GF said im obsessed also. little does she know i plan on building a snake rack...muhwahahahaha

you only live once and cant take money with you

I told myself when I bought my first two I wouldn't get any more until I had my first clutch hatch. Hopefully with some pastaves I'll be able to trade or get extra money for one of the two hundred or so projects bouncing around in my brain

Nothing works for me When I run out of room, I build more racks. when I run short on food, I build more rat racks. I have a serious problem. I just bought a snake that I did not need and have a incubator full of eggs. This weekend I plan to ???? Build more racks.

They keep me out of trouble because I don't have time to do anything else!

I'd have to say anything less than jamming a pencil into each eye will do nothing to lessen the urge...just my 2 cents! haha.
