Before you buy any of the animals on your wishlist, I'd suggest you have a savings account with at least $400 set aside specifically for any future vet visits you WILL need. Would you get a dog or a cat without being able to afford it's shots, heartguard, frontline, etc? If not, than why would you buy a bunch of reptiles that you can't afford vet visits for? To me that makes it seem like you regard reptiles as disposable pets. How long did your corn snake go without eating before you called a vet? You should have been force feeding it after going 2-3 months without a first meal, imo. It sounds like you waited until it had about a week of life left in it, then you called the vet, then you froze it to save some money. If I'm right, that's where my disrespect is coming from.
