Hey, guys!

My wonderful girlfriend and I just bought our first house together and we're really excited. We've gone from one snakeroom to two and I can already see that this won't last too long.

There are vacant lots all around us and we're working towards buying at least one of them in the future. We'd like to use those one of those lots to build a small facility consisting of three to five small reptile buildings probably occupying a combined amount of space equal to a normal moderate sized 3 BR 2BA house later on. I was wondering if any of you guys were breeding on a decently large scale and running a breeding business out of a residential neighborhood.

We made sure not to get into a deed restricted neighborhood and want to be sure we're not going to have any other problems before we look into buying another lot.

What do you guys think?

Are you doing it?

If so, how many animals do you have?

Have you had any problems with the amount of animals?

Any problems with the business address coming from a residential neighborhood?

The neighbors?

I hope that these questions aren’t rude. I’m posting because I imagine that there are a lot of other people out there like us that have experience in this.

I know that WE all know that even a large breeding facility could be pretty quiet and inoffensive to neighbors if properly maintained, but not everyone does.

We're responsible and considerate. We’re very low key. We wouldn't be running the place like a retail store and wouldn't be getting TOO much mail. (You guys know what I mean: food, more snakes, equipment sometimes…)

I'm rambling.

Please let me know what you think.

Aaron
