I'm honestly so tired of hearing this crap. If I had a nickel for every time some high and mighty breeder on this site accused a budding enthusiast of being in it for the money, I could split it amongst everybody who it was directed to and we'd all be rich. How about instead of assuming what I know and what my reasons for breeding are, you answer the actual question? "If i didn't ask your opinion, I don't want it."
I'm not planning to breed for profit, I want to raise them. I only plan on buying one more male and then no more breeders. I love ball pythons, I love my snake, and I love different kinds of morphs. I don't care what morph the offspring is because it doesn't matter - I'm not selling them. I know how to write a :cens0r::cens0r::cens0r::cens0r:ing punnett square because I'm not an absolute idiot. Congratulations on taking 6th grade biology like everyone else, it really gives you the right the the condescending attitude.
I am perfectly aware of the care that goes into owning and raising snakes - that really isn't the problem here. If you and everyone else got off your high horse and stopped assuming everyone is an idiot solely because they aren't an established breeder. I've bred snakes, I've raised snakes, I've cared for snakes. When I say "first snake" I mean the first snake that has truly been mine. I saved up money for her and I give her the absolute best care I can - she is the first snake I have BOUGHT myself.
And yes, I am "already planning" to breed. You completely contradicted yourself. You insult people for planning too far ahead and insult people for not planning enough. None of you even know what you think, all you want to do is insult new hobbyists for being lesser than you when there was a time each and every one of you were new.
Your assumptions are terrible and pretentious, and if I wanted to kill myself I could just jump from your conclusions to the ground. It was a simple question asking for the opinions of other breeders, and if you can't even answer the only thing originally asked - just don't give your opinion.
