Boas! They are my favorites! I can’t wait to produce my very own Sterlings in a few years.
Fun fact: I was actually going to get a female sunglow for my first snake but I ended up with a male hypo. Now I have a female anery sterling :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:.

It’s really nice to see that I am not the only person with a lot of animals. All my non-reptile friends think I’m crazy for having over 40 snakes alone. Along with my snakes, spiders and boxies, I had a collection of 20 various New Caledonian Geckos, a collection of 30+ tarantulas and 8 water turtles, all of which I rehomed due to moving from Southern Cali to Florida. The Box Turtles I currently have are being rehomed to a friend that works at LLL Reptiles.

I have employees that come on a weekly basis and do most of the cleaning and water changes. All of my wife’s reptiles have names, but I shy away from naming breeders because I typically retire them to pet homes after a few seasons of breeding.

The funny thing is that list had just seen me cut down by about 50 ball pythons. I’m in the process of doing it again but the market isn’t helping. I’m perpetually trying to have less ball pythons :joy:

The most reptiles I’ve had at one time was just shy of 250. I think I have 186 right now but at least 40 of them are young ball pythons and kingsnakes that are for sale. My eventual goal with ball python is to only have 10 breeder females and a few males I just need to wrap up a couple projects before I really start to cut numbers.
