Hello! So I've been considering adding a BCI to my collection. But I'm not sure if it is right for me or write for me at this time.
The BCI is one of 8 species on my bucket list. Ball pythons, ATB, ETB, MBK, Blood python, and BCI.
I currently have ball pythons and two Amazon Tree Boa. Hoping to breed and sell enough to support my hobby and maybe put a dollar or two in my pocket. Not looking for it to become a full time job but over all be a net positive. Idk if I will ever have all or breed all the species on my bucket list or not but it's a dream of mine.
Here is the thing. I'm afraid I might be moving to fast. I only started back hard into reptiles twoish years ago. I've always had a few geckos and used to keep corns and bearded dragons but never in large numbers. But now it two years I've accumulated 15 snakes (13 balls and 2 ATB). I have the itch for a BCI (jungle IMG motley) but I think I might be moving too fast. Yes I have the funds to support them and pay for possible vet bills. But just because I can doesn't necessarily mean I should.
What do you all think? How much more work would a BCI ad to my workload? I've never had anything that gets as big as a BCI before.
I know I'm still learning a lot and I don't want to be overwhelmed. They are beautiful snakes and I would love one but is now the time?
I feel like I'm trying to talk myself out of it. Lol
But I need a second more knowledgeable opinion thany own.
