Dream Scenario

[BWyant]

A plan and budget break down is great but there are always other costs that just pop up that are very difficult to plan for. Cost of electricity? Its gonna run your bill up. If you are looking to save money drop the 1.1 Champs. As far as I am aware the only super champs to have been produced have not survived so I would scrap that idea and just stick to one champ. And I dont think 1.3 mojos is necessary to begin with I would mix it up a bit more and get a male mojo with the following females:

special, phantom, butter.

Thats just me tho... I cant tell you to start out small cuz I didnt. I went from 2 bps to 13 in a span of 3 months... I would have a bigger cushion for unexpected expenses than just 1000.

Thank you. Good info, especially about the champagnes.

Yeah, unfortunately that budget just continues to slowly get bigger and bigger.... kind of like a snake, really. LoL.

I've definitely thought about scrapping the mojo route for the BELs though and getting at least one butter.

Thanks again.

Instead of getting a huge loan on all those common snakes, why don't you slowly invest into multiple gene females and a few visual recessive females? Raise them up for a year or two then buy multiple gene males? I understand your excitement/hopes for a breeding business but you have to be smart. All of those snakes you listed are fairly common now and the prices will plummet in the next 2 years. It would probably take you 2-4 years if your lucky to be able to pay off that loan just from profit of selling babies.

Oh, I'm not worried about paying off the money in a single year. That's not going to happen. It's damn near impossible for a small-business that's starting up to pay off their debt in the first year. I'd be looking at more like 3 years as the goal, just like you mentioned.

The thing I'm not seeing is how the snakes I mentioned are fairly common. I mean, yeah, the base morphs are, but BELs, Pumpkin Pieds and Super Phantoms ain't cheap.

You think it would be a better idea to just have a couple of powerhouse snakes so that food costs aren't as high and whatnot? I'm just a little concerned that if one of them were to croak or if the female didn't lay a clutch or if the eggs went bad... Then what? At least with that many snakes it's not like I'm putting all my eggs in one basket, literally.
