    I totally agree! How easy will that breeder be to answer questions etc. You want someone who is responsible and reliable and easy to reach.

    Plus, if I recall, you are still working out some kinks with your other tanks and snakes. Not trying to be preachy or give you a hard time, but you should probably walk before you run. I have also heard Hognose snakes can be picky eaters.

    Deborah, please chime in here if I am off base.

    GpBp, if I were you, and I know it's exciting getting new animals, I would pace yourself. Make sure everyone you currently have has everything they need. You are going to need bigger and better tanks, and are still working out temp and feeding issues as is.

    No judgement here, at all! Happy to help regardless of what you decide.

    However, I would hate to see either one of your current animals not get what they need because of too many animals too quick, or you burn out and not want to stay in the hobby.

    Just my two cents. Again, happy you are so enthusiastic and here to support you either way.
