    I wouldn't go as far as to say he's a bad guy and not to do business with him. The article in question was about how to run a snake business so it only makes sense that it would have some money tips in it and if your snake business is whats putting food on your family's table than who is to blame them for thinking about money?

    The reason from what I can see os because you spend more money on a nice male that can be bred to more than one female. Females cost more so you can get a nice double gene male and a couple single gene females and not hurt your wallet as much =P

    That was not explained, there was also, not a link to the page/article in question. I have also never heard of East Coast whatever......I didn't say he/she was a bad guy, just not a hobbyist that I would wanna spend my hard earned money with......again, if it is a JOB/FULL TIME BUSINESS/ONLY SOURCE OF INCOME, I can see that......different to advertise that to the general public, and not provide reasons.....I don't know if I would have worded it that way....shoot, maybe it IS worded correctly, and that was not explained by the OP.......I apologize for jumping to conclusions, and had a link to the article, or had it been copied and pasted, maybe I would have approached it differently.

    Colin is one of the best guys in the business. I actually just picked up a Killer Spin from him last week. All of his animals are top quality and he stands behind them as being such.

    Here is a link to the article the OP was talking about: Practical Principles for Ball Python Breeders.
    I'd recommend checking it out. It's a very well written and informative article.

    Well, like I said in my last post, had a link to the article been provided by the OP, or the paragraph/statment been copied/pasted, I MIGHT not have repsonded the way that I did initially.....I don't know Colin, nor have I done business with him, and honestly, I probably won't, not because of the article, just because I have people I already spend my money with, and I am a VERY loyal customer if I am done right.

    I will take some time to read the article.

    Sorry about that guys, I guess I should have included a link or explained it better.
