    There are SO many people breeding ball pythons these days...and the economy is not all that good either...people out of work are not buying pets, that's for sure.

    Most people are not making much money by selling BPs, and they can COST you more than you ever make...they're living animals, not all are successful breeders,
    plus they can also get sick, or egg-bound. You need money set aside for vet care too, besides all the food & supplies needed.

    Honestly, if I were you, I'd go buy one of my 'dream snakes' for a pet, with a nice set-up, and quit there...you'll have a lot more fun with a LOT less work & stress.
    If you aren't passionate about what you're working with, please just don't do it...the BP-market is pretty saturated as it is, from what I can tell.
