    Stressing out

    I'm in the middle of a trade where I have to ship my snake and be shipped another one and catching hell trying get things going communication is the worst thing right now. I had to upgrade my ancient DROID and got a new razor just because they had a good price on it. I'm not a techy. Kind of guy. So I'm trying to get pictures of my snake to this guy and I'm trying to do it with my new phone pics. And all and I'm confusing the hell out of him and me. Then I have to worry about the shipping details which I've never dealt with before. My whole breeding program is dependant upon me getting this snake and what if he gets mine and never ships his snake. Man I will be so relieved when this is done and my life gets back to normal. Thanks for letting me get that out I feel better now.

    with you stress levels i wouldn't do the trade.... you don't seem comfortable at all

    just be patient... wait to buy your snake? If you not in some sort of race.... you shouldn't stress so hard over a hobby

    I agree. If you don't feel 100% confident and with minimal stress (there will be some stress, but it sounds like you're experiencing way too much), then I wouldn't do the trade. It sounds like you're not very familiar with the seller? If you've not done business with them or don't know much about them, trading may not be the best idea. I know you're really anticipating breeding this season, but why not wait until an expo comes around in your area and buy a male? ball pythons can breed all year around. Be patient...you'll get babies eventually. I want to breed RIGHT NOW...but sadly my female ball pythons are only 180g and 218g and my male is 268g (once's he's about 500g, he'll be loaned to a friend of mine to breed). None of them are ready. And my cornsnakes are at least 18 months away from breeding. Take your time and breathe!
