I mean, yes I will definitely be willing to care for all 70+ babies should I produce that many, but I would not want to produce them if I know I will never be able to sell them. I have no problem limiting the number of clutches I produce, but I figured with all of my females laying my chances at creating more snakes that I want for myself would be greater. Ultimately the animals' needs definitely come first for me, so I don't want to make a mistake that might cause the snakes to suffer.
I guess it comes down to how hard is it to sell hatchlings as a breeder that has not yet established a reputation? Do you guys think it is best for me to only shoot for 4 or 5 clutches next season and then maybe I can produce more the following year?
