That is a ton of snakes!!!! Any morphs? Are you happy you got that shipment?

[hgrub]

Actually they all came in the cloth bag inside the foam box lol
All alive and very well...even though two are missing.

It's ok, at least all of the rest are healthy.

Curious...why so many?

[hgrub]

At first I picked out 11 babies that I like out of 58.

Later I decide to let all of them go. Since I'll have another shipment in next month and they all will be morph. I need to save space.

Picking out a YB, Pastel, Ghost, or any morph from this group is very easy...coz there're none. I'm sure some of you have already picked out nice babies from this group. lol

Wow so many questions...

Are they all Captive born?
Why don't you just sell those?
What kind of morphs are you getting?
Are you planning on selling any of the morphs when you get them?
How much did that cost you?

[hgrub]

I supply them all to pet shops in here.

I import everything legally so it's kinda hard to compete with people who smuggle animals into the country. They save at least $1,000 that way.

They are CH

Not this shipment. Next shipment I'll have Pied, Black Pewter, Pastel, Spider, Albino, etc.
I'll keep Pied, Black Pewter, and Pastel for myself. The rest will be my customers/friends' order.
It cost me more than you that's for sure. Cost of animal, I can get them lower than the market price in the US since I buy in lot, but I also have to pay extra for the CITES, health certificate, air freight, tax. Normally the expenses runs around $1,000-$1,500 depends on the quantity of box and its size. I don't make money often, most of the time I spent on animal I want to keep. Look at my avatar

Hope that help

[hgrub]

Another reason I don't make much money:
Also have 6 Bearded dragon and 2 corn snake with this shipment. I decided to keep 3 Bearded and one corn for myself.
Last shipment I import 2 pairs of Tangelo from Ron Tremper, I end up keeping one pair. I think I should consider a career change lol
