    Talking This is getting out of hand

    My collection of 2 snakes grew to 6 and will now be 8 sometime next week. It's an addiction. I blame my wife. She is an enabler.
    We have plans, probably next fall, to pair my Enchi female with the Pewter male. Hoping for a Frostbite. This will be our first try at breeding snakes.
    With the new additions here is what else I am thinking.
    Fire Mojave to Fire Pos Het Albino
    and/or
    Fire Mojave to Butter Pastel

    My son and I are hopping for a Super Fire or BEL. The Butterfly looks amazing.
    I do have a male Coral Glow, Female Pinstripe, and Female Pastel VPI Axanthic that may or may not be involved at some point down the road.

    The last couple of pairings probably won't happen till 2018. New additions are young and we want to take our time.
    I have a hatchling rack designed and am looking at ways to put together an incubator. We have time.

    Sorry there is not really a question in all of this. Just sharing some ideas.

    Thanks,

    I blame the wife as well. Never had any experience with snakes then she took in an adult corn one day and that was it. Hope you enjoy it as much as we do

    i am pretty sure this is how it happens for everyone...i started with a rescue that i got from someone and i now have 5 as well, mine include a male normal (rescue) a male fire, and my females are ghost, pastel and a vanilla. the normal is the only one that is of size for breeding and the others are all babies...i will be breeding i think in 2018 as well.. just trying to get the combos together now. i will be looking to get another 5 or so next year. one of them will be a banana..

    Once the snake bug hits, there's definitely no going back!.. sounds like you have some good ideas for your current selection!
