In 30 years, when they all die, I'll most likely be finished with school and will have a career -- no time or space to start up a snake collection from scratch. Aside from that, I don't have the will or the energy to start over. After losing the animals that I worked so hard to get and felt attached to -- I don't have the desire to put that kind of time, money, and effort into doing it again.
I forgot to answer two things in the last post -- whoever asked me about Kari, the vet tech -- her husband said "No way in hell" is she going to be allowed to keep any snakes in the house. And whoever said something about it being about the money -- it definitely isn't, not after I'm so far in the hole that I can't even see the exit any more. I decided to breed snakes so I could trade them off for other things I wanted -- maybe earn a couple bucks to put back into their maintenance costs. I work 2 jobs and sell vintage jewelry on Ebay -- I earn plenty of money for our family. The snakes had nothing to do with that.
