Was just wondering how long it will take you to recoup your initial investment and start making money? I know you guys spent quite a bit of money for all those morphs. I guess the answer, if you want to give it, will be a testament to the strength of the Ball Python market. I know on a smaller scale it is fairly easy to make money in the first year or two if you spend your money wisely. Comments?

JMHO, FWIW, YMMV.

My guess is less than a year. Make 10 spider males and that's it. Done. All you need is one spider and a bunch of normal females. They are doing good, trust me. I have seen the hatching pics and they are keeping busy!

and production is good you will make money. The key is to get on the ground floor of some morphs than there is a rather large market for them. The problem is once we made alot of money we are buying alot of new morphs... I will take that problem anyday.. It is really a beuatiful thing when your snake business funds itself. Wes and I just love keeping ball pythons and we are true hobbyists. We are having a ton of fun and anyone can do it.

Not really sure if anyone can do it. I wish i could get my hands on a nice het of a pied or a patel without spending every penny I have. But I am determined to find a nice baby out there somewhere. Hey morphking keep up all those morphs they look stunning.
