My genuine main point for this post was the care and respect for the animal (BP or otherwise) that we all love. PitOnTheProwl made a point by saying why not do more research instead of seeking a simple answer? And that's along the lines of what I'm referring to. If breeding is what you truly want to do, I'm suggesting not becoming a breeder off your first snake. Do massive research (of which I do understand asking questions is somewhat part of the research), work for a breeder for a while to get the hang of the ups and the downs, know the business, explore what is to be done to the surplus of babies you have that didn't sell.

I respectfully disagree with MonkeyShuttle's comment of "Everyone loves babies". Well, I don't disagree with the statement because we all do love babies but I disagree with that being a main reason to start breeding. There has to be more of a reason to it than that to start reproducing an animal that... that basically isn't endangered.

Im not trying to give off the vibe that a breeding business is bad. Just trying to put out that it should be approached with the overall care of the animal in mind. I cringe every
time I go to a reptile show and see a large box of normal, baby BPs being sold for $20 each that can easily be haggled down to $15 or $10 just so the breeder doesn't have to take it back home. An inexperienced owner is much more likely to buy one of these to "see how it goes" than to buy a $300+ snake and do the same.
