Why do I suddenly want every BP I see??
It was going fine with Bryan and Kay for 3 years. Then after 2 failed clutches (one accidental), I hatched Ace and Brianna in 2009. Not much interest in breeding BPs at that time but then last year I hatched another clutch from Bryan and Kay, and it seems an addiction has crept in. I have added a very light normal male and an arguably unattractive pastel female to the collection this year, so I am up to 6, not counting my 4 other snakes. And despite the fact that I am currently out of room, I find normals to be really pretty and so I still have the urge to buy every time I see a nice looking adult, despite the fact that I must resist. Anyone else have this issue?

I quote those numbers as well. Added the big rat colony too! We are at 22 now. We've traded, bought, and sold so many different BP's these last 2 years, but we finally have the collection right where we want it. So, I told the wife no more snakes for awhile 
..... I hope haha

I second that! I originally told myself I'd never go outside of BPs, now I'm looking at Hog Island and BCIs (just need to convince the significant other)!! Don't know about piercings, but definitely like tattoos, start with one and then your body is covered in no time!

I try to avoid the classifieds for a reason...
Why keep a snake? Why keep any animal? Because you enjoy the animal, find something beautiful and fascinating about it, and it fits seamlessly into your lifestyle.
