What happens if you get stuck with 10 or more snakes that you have to house and have trouble selling?</P><P> I bred my crested geckos for the experience. I ended up with 7 hatchlings over the next 5 months. Mom and dad have gone back to seperate cages and I have 2 babies left over that I am having trouble selling, so it looks like they are staying.Mon, 26 Oct 2009 15:25:40 GMTRatsnakehttp://board.reptilechannel.com/Topic104826-21-1.aspxBall pythons could be a good start and also could be a pain in the *** lol they are notorious for randomly going off feed and it could get annoying if you are attempting to breed and you think your snake is gravid cause she stops eating and it's really just her being a ball python lol The average clutch is 4-6 eggs I believe but can be as little as 2 or as high as 20 (believe it or not!)<br>As was already mentioned make sure you have the space, time, and money to care for whatever you breed.<br>And always..ALWAYS do extensive amounts of research FIRST.Mon, 26 Oct 2009 10:00:11 GMTSinkarnatehttp://board.reptilechannel.com/Topic104826-21-1.aspxHmm well i guess it depends on how much money you have and how much space. Different animals have different requirements and another fact to think about is what if you cant sell them. Like say you breed beardies and say it lays 20 eggs. First off what are you going to house them, are you going to be able to afford their required food and what if you can find a home for them your stuck with 20 hungry mouths. With huge tank requirements. I guess really before you breed make sure your able to find homes for the animals and make sure your able to feed them. But since you have a ball python why not just get another ball python and breed them. If i remember right they only lay 3-10 eggs or something like that. So try that just make sure you read up on the proper breeding procedures of them.Sun, 25 Oct 2009 20:52:59 GMTGECKODUDEhttp://board.reptilechannel.com/Topic104826-21-1.aspxI love animals, and have been raised by a dog breeder. I love breeding dogs, but I think there are plenty of homeless dogs as it is. I own a ball python, and was wondering what, if any, herp species I should look in to breeding. I'm really not after money, I just love babies! Any advice?Sun, 25 Oct 2009 18:57:43 GMTMocha Muffin
