The only reason I said I would get out of breeding was that is if I could not get consistent clutches. I am not going to take care of 16 snakes each year just so I can have no viable eggs to hatch. 5 to 6 snakes will be plenty for me to enjoy if they are not giving me clutches. I have 16 snakes so I can find out which ones I enjoy. Eventually I want to about 8 to 10 females that really make me happy and about 3 to 5 males that have multiple genes for making really cool morphs. My wife and I make about 200K a year in our jobs. I could care less about what the ball python industry has to offer me financially. I do it because I love it. I have been around reptiles my whole life. I never in my life have looked at an animal as a way to feed my family and believe me I never never never never never will..........Period. Ask anyone that knows me and ask them if I have any intentions other than breeding really nice healthy snakes.

Good luck in getting your 50K back,
Bill
