    new year resolution

    So, I have two new years resolutions. One, to start field herping in the warmer months to come and two, to start my bp collection so I can start breeding in the next few years or so. What are you guys new years resolutions?

    Re: new year resolution

    I decided last summer that I wanted to start breeding. My resolution is to stop buying so many snakes this year before my wife kills me.

    Stop buying !!
    The one thing I found that you can count on about Balls is that they are consistent about their inconsistentcy.

    1.2 Coastal Carpet Pythons
    Mack The Knife, 2013
    Lizzy, 2010
    Etta, 2013
    1.1 Jungle Carpet Pythons
    Esmarelda , 2014
    Sundance, 2012
    2.0 Common BI Boas, Punch, 2005; Butch, age?
    0.1 Normal Ball Python, Elvira, 2001
    0.1 Olive (Aussie) Python, Olivia, 2017

    Please excuse the spelling in my posts. Auto-Correct is my worst enema.

    Re: new year resolution

    I told myself I would wait a year to get a second snake when I got back into keeping them. There is a reptile expo where I'm at on the 16th. I think it's time. New snake for the new year!
