Out of curiosity, do you currently own any Ball Pythons, or other kinds of snakes? I'm just wondering what is inspiring your desire to start breeding them and what your background with snakes is. It's hard for us to give you advise when you haven't actually provided us with any background info as far as your current collection, setup, and experience level.

If you want to get into the "game" to make money then my advise is don't bother. Only the big breeders who have devoted their lives, not to mention hundreds of thousands of dollars, actually make decent money. Most of the rest of us are breaking even at best. This hobby works best if you are super passionate about ball pythons and if money is a secondary concern or not a concern at all.

If you have experience owning ball pythons, have fallen in love with the species as we all have, and are just now ready to take that next step, then welcome to the forum. This is a great place with lots of helpful people.

As for the caps, your logic makes NO sense. Your grammatical and spelling errors would stand out even more in all caps than they would in little letters so being lazy about proof reading is no reason to type in all caps. And I do have to toss in, if you are too lazy to type a few sentences in normal letters due to not wanting to spend time proofreading, then this hobby might not be for you, it's not a "lazy" hobby, it's a daily commitment and takes much much more time and effort than just typing a few sentences normally and proofreading them...
