Where can i get the breeding snakes for $350 or less? : you can't. You MIGHT be able to get a breed able spider male for that much, but I haven't seen any. Breed able female spiders or pastels are worth much more than 350..

How much will i be able to sell the babies for? Look around and see what other bees, spiders, pastels and normals are going for.

Breeding snakes isn't just about making money. You need to put a lot of money down as initial investments. Do you have experience breeding snakes? Have you thought about how much hard work it is to sell babies? What if people don't buy them?

People sell at shows, over the net, in classifieds, to wholesalers, etc.


These responses are from another breeding post i replied on:

Breeding animals is not a guaranteed money maker. Many people get into this hobby for the wrong reasons, and I'm certainly not saying that you are but your post comes across as very monetarily driven. Understand the investments you'd need to make and the decisions you'd have to make if you chose to bring more snakes into the world (and that goes for anyone who is considering breeding anything, not just you I'm going to be doing very small time breeding and am making a business plan, and thinking about some of the less than thrilling aspects of breeding these snakes. Just search for "warning, graphic pictures" threads.. You'll see the hardship that may accompany breeding).

If you pick up a female, even one that is of breeding size, she (and any new snakes) you get should be quarantined. Where would you quarantine a snake in a dorm room? (i went to college, they dont call them shoe boxes for nothing lol). Many breeder sized females take a year off after they have been moved around or stressed a lot (like when being moved or transported, or coming from a rescue situation).

I recommend you look over this thread: http://ball-pythons.net/forums/showt...23#post1165923 it has a lot of useful info on weather breeding snakes is something for you, and more.
