    To make money you have to spend money. Spending $1000 on a snake, and breeding wiill net you profit but not the amount as quickly as a snake that isn't as common.

    Example:
    When CG's came out, they were 50k or something of that nature. People spent $50k, then bred and sold as well as holdbacks. They may of spent $50k on a snake but that same snake netted them I guarantee you well over $100k in profit. I wouldn't spend that much money but then again I'm not into the hobby to make a ton of money. I'm in it because I enjoy dealing with snakes and I would like to cover my costs, but anything else is awesome and I'll be thankful for that. Now granted if I wanted this to become a business to live off of, then yes snakes that aren't as common would be needed to actually return expenses.


    But if you paid $50k for a baby CG and 2-3 years down the line the price drops way down.....how do you tend to make back that money? I mean the price will continue to drop right? So I dont think its a full proff profit. Yes it is possiable, but not full proff. Im not knocking anyone that has paid alot, but just look at the way the Bananna's have dropped.
