Hi, I just wanted to point out the fact that I have seen way TOO MANY would be career breeders have all the fun/passion of the hobby sucked out of it by the almighty dollar. I personally believe that the more successful snake breeders out there are the ones that stumbled into the "money" part of the hobby. This is a hobby that ended up taking off for some people by a virtual "perfect storm" of circumstances. Please be careful, and don't allow yourself to become the latest "Mad Breeder" on the block wailing about the nature of the Ball Python business. Have fun at it, breed what catches your eye and is within your financial reach. If you are having a ball at this thing, your time, effort and passion will shine through and create a rewarding experience that no price tag could ever measure up to. Potential customers are drawn to this kind of energy I think, ad if by chance they aren't it won't matter cause you love your hobby.,
