I guess you've never bred womas. Getting them to breed is one thing and getting good hatch rates is something else. Widespread knowledge of what it takes to successfully incubate woma eggs has has only happened relatively recently.

I bought a group a few years back for $1K each. One of the reasons for this (I believe), is that the previous owner was unable to successfully get the eggs to term. In fact, I saw a pair of stellar animals for sale about a year ago. The stated reason for sale? Can't get the eggs to hatch.

Lastly, once you own one of these snakes, you'll wonder why you waited so long...they're really, really cool!
