    They stay at just over 4 feet, aren't actually venomous and require no care what-so-ever.

    What mainstream colubrid lays the most eggs?

    Wait till you're out of the house. Get something you actually want. I've waited 6 years to be able to start getting my own snakes I want and I still don't have any. I will be getting some soon, but still it doesn't sound like your parents are endorsing a good way to look at it. Animals are living creatures that deserve respect and good care no matter what they are. Not saying your a bad person, but I really think waiting is your best option.

    I'm sorry, but if you're just looking to make a quick buck, I don't think you should breed ANYTHING. Not even mice.

    Also, if you think you'll be making quick cash, you're dead wrong. You'll be putting a LOT of time, effort and money into breeding just about anything. And it will take years sometimes just to break even and profit.

    Corn snakes. I actually got rid of most of my corns and got into balls instead because I was producing way too many babies to take care of. A large healthy female can produce close to 50 babies a year with double clutching. And the morphs are as nice as ball morphs.

    Nail meet head.
    Popularity does play into it. Granted a new snake can become popular over time, clutch size should not be your first concern. Well not "largest clutch size", a viable breeding clutch size of course but the snake itself will be the ultimate selling point.
    Behaviour, colour/pattern, ease of care (more difficult snakes can still appeal to skilled herp lovers but this is a smaller pool of potential customers), etc all would be higher in my priority list.

    Also, if you were to breed something like corns, are you even going to be able to look after 50+ babies? They're definitely not going to sell in a few days. You'll probably wind up having to hold onto quite a few, and that's going to get expensive.
