1) Only buy and breed what you like, if you are going to get stuck with unsold snakes for a while, you might as well like what they look like.

2) Only breed for fun and not for money, especially to start. If later you decide that you are easily able to sell more snakes then go ahead and breed more but don't start because you want to make money.

3) When selling snakes price them for how much you can, sometimes you will actually lose money if you count up all the dollars spent feeding the adults and the babies, cage supplies, show fees, water, electric, etc.. When you get frustrated trying to make your money back reread rule #2

For example, I don't work with any pattern morhs in the corn. I really like the saddle mark pattern and even though it would add $$ to my price I stay away from the pattern morhs
