Well, I think boas are the easiest, because they do all the work. With egglayers you have incubation to figure out. Balls and boas don't have to be brumated, but kings and milks do. That can be a little tough, but not that bad. A nice way to start might be to buy a morph version of a species you already own, and then you can produce hets, which might still sell for a nice price. You can't go wrong working with something you love.

"The serpent crams itself with animal life that is often warm and vibrant, to prolong an existence in which we detect no joy and no emotion. It reveals the depth to which evolution can sink when it takes the downward path and strips animals to the irreducible minimum able to perpetuate a predatory life in its naked horror."
