    Thank you for the offer, Joshua. But I actually would really like to keep my snake together.. Both my boas are only two feet long, my blood is nearly two feet as well. If you're willing to take on the two boas and blood, then I'd be more than happy to work something out with you.

    If it comes down to it, I'd be willing to ship my animals.


    And I'm not really paying someone to breed snakes. But enough to cover what it cost to feed my collection and house them, and a little extra for the time it takes to care for them.


    But if anyone is in the florida area, or I suppose anywhere, and is willing to work with me and write a contract, then please PM me.

    I understand that you love your pets, but if you allow someone to breed them, ANYTHING can go wrong.. Life threatening issues. You're going to be gone for 4 years. If it were me (and its NOT), I would sell them, then see if the owner would sell them back to you later.

    They won't be the same babies you purchased. You won't get to see them change and grow. That's something I've been enjoying from my snakes. I don't want you to miss out on that . Sorry if any of this seems blunt or mean.. I really am not trying to be

    Sent you a PM and would be willing to try and take all of them, but would need to figure out logistics. Didn't mean to imply you were paying anyone to breed them, but basically to cover food and housing. Hooblah is right though, and whether you are just housing or breeding, things can go wrong in four years so just something to keep in mind. Please let me know if we can work on this so it works out well for you

    I'm in Afghanistan now and can't wait to get home to my sons, but my snakes are high on that list as well. Unfortunately I will be home in December after you are already gone. If I might ask, what happens if you decide that you love the Army and stay in? Once/if you make SGT then you will be able to move off post, same if you get married, in which case you could find a place that would let you keep snakes. You may also decide that you don't want them back, as was previously mentioned. My snakes are the main reason that I will never try to get stationed in either HI or overseas (Germany, Korea, Italy, etc.). Best of luck with this and again, sorry that I can't help.

    You can probably find a breeder near you who would be willing to board your snakes for little or no charge if you let them be bred(: If not, maybe a family member?

    Good luck!

    I was hoping that by posting here someone from Florida would be interested, I've found two people so far that are willing to help so far, which is wonderful.

    if all else fails I will sign a comntract and house your snakes, all of them ( would look into the blood care but that only take a little time ) i had boas before. I would only need to get more rats and some extra tubs ( until boas need larger cages. ) I have done a taking care of deal befoer so I have xp. I can even send you emails and pics all the time to update you ( being disable will give me plenty of time to keep you up to date on them) lol. I enjoy snakes care so much I rather play with them than play on my ps3/360. PLus my fiance does know a lot about snakes as well so she make a great backup in case something were to happen to me ( break my fool neck in car acc' lol ) and with her thing for records I bet you have a 600 page book to go over with snakes. ( as for breeding I have all the samel ball python morphs so there no worries there.) lol
