Nice looking Bloods and Boa as well. We each have our different thresholds. Mine is 17. Lauras was 9. Anyway, 50 is a good number to have

Re: Think I am going to stop at 50!

The bloods are beautiful. And arabesque is one of my favorite boa morphs. I'm jealous.

Re: Think I am going to stop at 50!

How do you afford to feed/care for 50 snakes?? Where do you house 50 of them?

I raise my own food, which is way cheaper then buying it.
As for housing, I live in a 3 bedroom house with a full basement and I sleep in the carport

Re: Think I am going to stop at 50!

So your snakes own the house...you do this just as a hobby? Or do you breed and sell? Wouldn't 50 be like an all day every day task? Are you retired?

LOL, I bet you do! They are all great looking additions

Borneos are probably the easiest of the 3 Bloods to get as adults. While they do still have the short fuses so typical of the entire family, they do tend to be much less jumpy and paranoid than Malaysians are, and with size comes confidence, so you shouldn't have much difficulty with those if they were well treated before you got them.
