I suppose I'll share my plans/aspirations/goals....

Within the next couple of months I'll be working on a herp room in the long run consisting of wall to wall rack systems. Hatchling racks, juvenile racks, adult racks....for BPs at all life stages. So hopefully by May we will have the framing and insulation done,walls painted, some sort of air circulation system up and running, adult and hatchling rack systems built, and heating dialed in to keep the room temp constant ~79-80F.

While I'm working on the herp room, I will also be completing FedEx cert process so I can start shipping.

This summer I will be working with a friend to create a website for ourselves to do a few herp sales, and hopefully create some local customers.

My focus later this year will be collecting more leos for my breeding projects (specifically my own sunglow project). Also, I would like to start a crested gecko collection.

Snake-wise this next year I'm looking into:

>04' or 05' Pastel Male
>~3 Normal Female BPs

Then I'll be working on fattening these up so I can produce 07' Pastels. My main goal of getting into morph breeding is to produce supers...they have to be one of my favorite morphs.

After working with pastels, I want to acquire a few simple recessives to play with...we'll decide that when the times comes.

Other than buying/building/and breeding projects, I look to travel to a few shows this year and meet some faces in the game and get some advice. Also, the possibility of picking up a few critters.

So far I plan to attend:
Wisconsin Reptile Breeders Show Monona, WI April 22nd
NARBC in Chicago October 7-8th

My goal is to keep it simple, and keep it overall fun. Herps have truly become my passion, so I'm gonna run with it while I'm still young and make the best of it. From that point if the online thing goes good for a while, I will be continuing school and start drawing up a business plan. And from there who knows where it will go.
