in 2021 we plan on growing and updating our room, growing out our retics, ball pythons, crestie and day geckos as well as adding more cresites, hognoses, leos, ball pythons, retics, carpet chameloens, a frilled dragon and a chondro! hoping to have everything going and about half our collection up to breeding size by mid-end 2021! cant wait!
So I know that I didnāt update this thread when I changed my long-time goal to breeding boas particularly sterling and IMG combos. But today I did essentially start that goal with Willow.
So yeah, Iām ready to plan for next year!
OMG she is the best looking boa I have EVER seen (sorry to all other boa owners out there) she is really beautiful. If we ever get a boa, like hubby wants, then Iād definitely say yes to one like her.
The silver is so shiny and the eyes are so blue
I know youāve edited a long time for her so congrats I canāt wait to see what offspring she makes
Definitely keep us updated when the time comes
100% The forum is going to be stocked with stuff about all of the grownups that Iām going to get eventually
So, how did everybodyās plans come along? What did you accomplish and what didnāt you accomplish?
For me personally I successfully bred leopard geckos and crested geckos. I built my tortoise table (which I use for a shelf) but I decided not to get a tortoise (they do best in covered enclosures and huge enclosures). I got more isopod species (and I got my millipedes to reproduce) and Iām hoping to work on getting ghost mantises or at least enclosures set up in the next few weeks.
Other notable things that I didnāt plan on:
I got my first dart frogs (and Iāll hopefully get more)
I got breeder leopard geckos (for projects with black night snow and tangerine)
I started producing mealworms for food and Iām going to try breeding hornworms (my first attempt failed)
I have plans to get my first snakes and Iāve started saving for them
My plans for next year are to produce all of my leopard gecko food (except for a rare other treat that I donāt produce like BSFL). Get my first snake species (likely sand boas and african house snakes). Get a high quality tangerine female leopard gecko for my male. Start keeping and breeding mantises, more isopod species, and possibly more millipede species. I would also like to start keeping or have setups for day geckos species and/or more dart frogs.
Happy New Year!
Happy New Year!
I canāt wait to see your plans come together
So last year (2021) we managed to get a female & male soft scale Crestie, produce ball pythons, buy enclosures for future Cresties and keep spending to a minimum.
I didnāt get to breed my Cresties as my red just isnāt gaining the weight enough
And I successful made a mess of breeding Wax worms
This year
We plan to expand our snake enclosures, hopefully a personalised rack system as I want them to have plenty of room, just easier to clean than vivs and be longer as opposed to wider.
Produce pied ball pythons & hets
Produce Cresties
And keep spending to a minimal as I foresee us wanting to keep a lot of self produced reptiles this yearāŗļø
This year is going to be GREAT!
Keep safe
