Hey there! For my birthday today I've decided to take the plunge into ball python breeding and buy animals for next year. A friend has offered me what I'd consider a great deal on 4 snakes and a 6-tub rack. Being new to ball python's I was wondering what the opinions were, if it was worth the $800
Feel free to be as blunt as possible.

2010 Female - Normal Proven Het Axanthic VPI
2012 Male - Axanthic VPI
2013 Female Spider het Axanthic VPI
2013 Male Bumblebee

Also as a bonus he's offered to throw in a 2014 Pied for $200, but I'm not sure I want to mess with double recessive genes yet... Although I think an Pied Axanthic would look amazing!

What do we think? Good start package, or run the other way?
