Real quick, I have never posted here before but have lurked around for a year or two now. I love these forums and have learned a ton here but was always just too lazy to sign up and post. But this topic finally got me to sign up. I am just a regular guy who has been in the hobby for about 12 years now, boas for 3, so this is just my opinion.

My wife and I had a similar discussion when I got into boa morphs. While trying my herp skills at a new tree frog might set us back a few bucks breeding boa morphs was a big investment. I look at it this way, I would keep and probably breed boas anyway so if I can make a little money back to help feed the snakes, and my snake addiction, then great. I am planning on producing Kahl Sunglows next season and hope the price holds steady until then. I paid good money for quality snakes from a reputable breeder so I would hope to see some return on this investment. But if not in the end I love herps, especially boas, and think Sunglows are great looking snakes so as long as I don't go broke feeding the babies waiting for a buyer I will be happy.

I wish my first post was shorter, I am really pretty quiet! I look forward to future posts on these forums and actually participating in them now!
