Re: Really cool project

My advice, and some might not agree with this is really make sure you have people that will take your babies, if you don't have a base for where these snakes are going you will end up giving them to a pet store and more often then not they end up with less then educated owners and I've seen more then my fair share of snakes dead in pet stores.

I would love to breed but this is why I could never do it, I would never be able to just send them somewhere where I wouldn't know the people getting them or how they are being taken care of and especially around me there are so many people breeding that that is where the babies end up and they more then usually end up dead or back with the breeder.

Its just something to think about, I don't want to rain on your parade I just want you to think about it now instead of later when you have to make the choice about what you are going to do with the offspring.

Yeah I haven't really thought anything through and I'm not even sure I'll be able to do it. Just an idea I had.
