I fell in love with snakes a long time ago, as a small child chasing garters. Now Im going into my senior year in high school and Ive been spending every paycheck since I moved out buying snakes, and aquariums. (and of course food, and a little bit stashed away for after high school but thats not the point) The point is that I have finally decided what I want to do with my life, I want to be a professional snake breeder. I have posted this ambition before and people said i could never make enough to support myself. So I thought of a new idea, instead of targeting the reptile hobbist who always wants the latest morph (which are varible and expensive) I want to target families. Too many children want pet snakes, and arent allowed to have them because they are expensive and temperental. I want to specifically breed a new and different snake that doesnt get over 5ft long and has a great disposition, and is beautiful. Ball pythons are old hat. I want to crossbreed until I get these cretures so they are sterile, thus making me the only breeder to offer them. I would sell them for cheap but make my money off the mice. I would grow my own mice and a small feeding supply for them (which lowers ingredient cost) and keep my mice immaculately healthy, and have a guarentee that as long as they buy my mice and use the care sheet I make for them the snake will stay healthy. If not they can ship it back, not a big deal. Thus the snake is a one time purchase, but the mice are long time commitments. My thing will be that I sell friendly, small snakes, how can a mom not let her son buy a snake if its cheap small and friendly? and she can just ship it back if she has any problems? Please tell me what you think about my business idea.
