I will not do business with anyone who deals with wild caught animals! I will also not do business with flippers! Flippers and people dealing with wild caught animals are crashing this market faster than anything else, and I won't support that.

Um, not sure where you are buying your snakes, but this pretty much cuts out the big guys.

Think about what the ball python business would be like if it was illegal to import ball pythons. If there were no more captive hatched or wild caught animals imported into the United States then the price would skyrocket for captive bred animals. This is simple supply and demand. Normals would sell for much higher than they do now. I had to sell normals for $20, and some less than that, last year. It really is not worth a breeder’s time to breed, feed, clean up, heat, and cage these animals over a two month period to sell them for $20.

Is snake breeding your career? if so, then maybe you should invest some real bucks into some crazy morph that has a chance at a return.

And if it were illegal to import ball pythons, then there would be NONE in captivity, it's a double edged sword.
