I hate to say it but I agree...I breed what I like to look at and what I know I can market to the public...love the snakes and love the morphs but I also love the income...I have a lot invested and I aint in it for the pure joy of owning Ball Pythons...its a lot of time, work and money to get it going and it takes money to make money...
If anyone says they are in it for the joy then they will not be around long in this hobby. I make 6 figures a year at a full time job (60 hours a week) and hate every minute of it...I breed BP's because I love being around snakes and I want something that I can invest money in and see a return on my investment. I want out of my 60 hours a week and cut down to 40 and have the BP's cover the difference but still I enjoy seeing them every day...watch them grow and change and see the babies pip out...so it is a even match...enjoyment and income....anyone else who says different is being less than upfront.
Just my opinion and I could be wrong....but I dont think so
