Then you will have to have people lined up to sell your babies to.

Keep in mind only a few shipping companies will let you ship live animals, even then NONE OF THEM offer insurance. Also the market is growing, but so are people doing exactly what your doing.

I don't want to be a downer, but I've seen this happen way too much, people get in over their head and realize it's not a good way to make any money. 95% of people never even break even on their snakes when they thought they could make thousands.
Yes, the seller is giving me all the racks, incubators, thermostats, and heating elements. I have a good friend that breeds rats, ASF's and mice, and the seller lives in the next town from me.

Don't worry about lecturing me on these details. I'm just looking for prices to know my possibilities.
