Actually - I'm not "in the market" - I am more of a collector than a breeder - I got into breeding mainly because it was something that my family wanted to try and it's one of the few things that we can still do together as a family - as a bonus I get to add some pretty snake to my collection. I will never have more than a few clutches per year - on principle I am against the mass production that occurs in the industry - I don't intend to make money from the venture - if I break even between what I sell and my purchases and maintenance bills that is more than I can ever expect - though seriously unlikely. Our snakes are our pets - they aren't our business - there aren't a lot of people that spend as much as we do for pets. There are a lot of people that shouldn't own snakes - that own them for the wrong reasons - that can't properly care for the ones they got - that exploit them etc. etc. We need to preach responsibility before recruitment.
