As of now I have a pretty solid idea of exactly what I want my collection to consist of and should have it complete in a year. My current carpet python, a green tree python, an olive python, a large specimen female ball, a burm, and one more I've not set my mind to yet. I plan on an all female collection except the burm, personal preference there as females usually exemplify the python characteristics I like. I was planning on the collection being entirely pythons but the final one just may be an ATB. I'm glad I'm finally at a point in my life where I can commit to my dream collection I've wanted for 20 years.

Balls will always be my ideal pet because for every reason under the sun they are perfect. Ease of care, personality, size for relaxed handling, and their pattern is just beautiful. But I believe my next acquisition will be the GTP so I can complete my life goal of owning one in an amazing display setup. The ball I'm waiting for the right one to come around.
