I know, I know, you don't wanna hear the word "wait", but seriously, wait. Not just because of your age, but because to get involved with the really fun stuff, you need some serious cashflow. Before you even have the snakes, you need the enclosures, the feeders, the incubator, the sheer space, and THEN you get to actually look at what you wanna breed! save up. seriously. you will feel much less rushed when you actually START your projects if you have all of this nailed down beforehand. tossing 20 bucks a paycheck into a savings account can buy you some real powerhouse animals down the road.
