Hey all!
I am joining the military and have a slight conflict of interest. The lifestyle that comes along with it is hardly conducive to the number of snakes we have. Anyone in or has been in with snakes? Ball pythons are black listed so living on base is a no. My husband wants to sell our collection and start over down the line, we have some nice snakes, and I would hate to see them go. Has anyone been in this situation or been in the military with snakes? We have 25, and two clutches on the way, so of course we would have to downsize, what is a more manageable number for the amount of moving required?

I am thinking we should keep our morph females, and maybe our specter fire male and raise them up, in four years if/when I get out we will have some nice breeding sized females, and can invest in another multi-gene male to cover them. If we need to sell them, keeping them for however long will only increase our return as breeding sized females are valuable assets. Advice?
