I loooove breeders that do payment plans. I've got several snakes I wouldn't have if it weren't for that.

I lucked out when it comes to the money aspect of affording them. I don't work (semi-retired I guess you'd call it), and my husband is a nuclear pharmacist. He's so supportive of my hobbies that he takes an extra couple days a month working as the temp pharmacist at the local Target pharmacy. He makes more in each day, than I used to make in an entire two weeks' check. That's my reptile "allowance". LOL Of course I do things for him in return, that I know bring him joy. I learned to do the hot stones massage because he has a disability that causes him a lot of soreness sometimes and it really helps. Nothing like a hot stone massage with aromatherapy, a nice mani and pedi, and a little reiki. Things like that. I wouldn't have anything if it weren't for him. Has no interest in the snakes, but loves to watch me get excited talking about them.

As for where I house them. Right now I've got a couple nice homemade racks, and one big one I bought from animal plastics for my big females. I'm getting ready to build another. I've found that I really enjoy making these different things the hobby calls for, and I love that you can choose the tubs you want and build from there.

The basement has become my dragon's den.
