Quick! I bought an airplane! Tell me everything I need to know about being a pilot - I'm flying myself to Australia this year!
In all seriousness, here's everything you need to do to be successful (from Kevin McCurley's book, The Complete Ball Python):
- Be Educated
- Be Observant
- Be Proactive
- Be Reasonable
- Be Open to Advice!
- Be a problem solver - don't be afraid to think!
- Research, research, research! There are books an an internet full of good information, but watch out for "self-appointed experts" in on-line forums.
- Join a herpetological society in your area.
- Visit reptile expos and specialty shops and talk to established breeders.
- Enjoy your animals!
Best regards,
Eric
