I know its a vague kind of question... But I am trying to research what makes one breeder better than the other, and what kinds of steps one has to go through to gain the respect of fellow breeders. Afterall, I havent found anything yet that is like a BBB for snake breeders except the thing on Faunna. While I am looking for the right person to buy my snakes from, I wanna make sure I have taken the right measures to ensure a quality snake. What I mean by this is there are probably some great small time breeders out there who just havent gotten their name out yet, right? And how would one that I have bought from, who is just a small time compared to nerd or anyother, go about becoming as greatly known? And on the flipside, how do the ones who are not good breeders get weeded out? I know its alot to absorb, but I just spent 700 on 3 snakes, and before I go dumping a couple thousand out, I just wanna know why that person may not be as succesful or well know as NERD for example? Any Thoughts??
