Question

[Felidae]

Listen Echo.. I'll be really serious.
When I got my first snake, no internet, no forums, even the phone calls was expensive. Started in the bottom? Yes... I travel by bus/train 2-3 hours to the zoo or the "big keepers" (today is ridiculous) to speak with people who know much more than me, and where can get the most information possible. (At this time the ball python breeding was something hard. Without the correct knowledge the captive breeding was rarely successful.) In few years my brain became a complete database of the scientific name hundreds and hundreds of species, the correct temperature, habitat, origin, venom type, and every stuff what I found interesting and useful. I had 50+snakes, some iguanas, geccos, chameleons, spiders, scorpion (interesting but ball python never.. ). I bred my own rats, mice, worms, flies, silkies and everything what I can. We didn't know about rack systems, so I kept my animals in terrariums. Almost every piece made by hand, cause the originals was too expensive. What I won with the breeding is gone for the heating, lightning and food for them. All my pocket money for the animals. Later when I started to working, even a good part of my salary for the animals. All of my free time, before and after the school or work, I cleaning cages, build new ones, feed my reptiles, read books and scientific articles to learn and note everything what I can. That's fine. I like every second, and even today I learn more and more, especially now when I started to keep ball pythons what I never did before.

So you think people joking with you here?

You say just the breeding part is new for you?
You kept your snakes in gravel inside a small fishtank. Everyone in here seriously tried to correct your poor husbandry to help you out.
To breeding? Try it. I wish from all of my heart the success. Doesn't matter the morph. Even the pipping of the normals is every time beautiful and exiting. Just I hope you started to feel that is not just a hobby, and nothing with the money. In the age of the internet every information and every help what you have make that much more easier...
