like everyone said putting money in your first though for breeding bad choice. i was in the same spot you were in 8 years ago though about breeding(not about the money tho). don't forget you also have to factor in the cost of getting an incubator or making one, both cost some money for supplies and a good thermostat. housing for all the babies once they hatch, so you will either be buying a rack, or building one. food for the babies and don't forget in 4 years you will be going to college, 99% of college woulnt let you have snakes and if you try to keep them in your dorm you will get kicked out trust me i know. think about it for a while this is not a hobby where you can just throw it away after you started especially if you breeding normals. just look on your local crags list theres hundreds of normals for sale and not many people want them. think about it and make sure you want to do it, or just wait like i did until you know you can house,feed and take care of them the way they need to be. and save some money along the way, and you will be able to get the morphs you want and will have a decent backbone into the morph world of ball python breeding.
