A question to you serious collectors/breeders about how you got started

I don't know if I qualify as "serious" yet, but I started the same as most other people on this site. One snake at a time. LOL.

Living in Florida, I'd always had an interest in reptiles because of the variety I could catch in my own backyard. I've learned everything (and I do mean EVERYTHING) about good keeping I know from this forum and Kathy Love's book. I'm currently working from home, and my partner is a hair stylist. But I'm the one that pays for all of the animals and their care. When I met him, I only had 3 snakes, and he was in now way interested. I slowly lured him in before springing the trap, and getting him to buy herps of his own. LOL. We're coming up on our 3 year anniversary, and I've had herps for almost 4 years.

I'm with Robbie on this one. I started with one. Then got another, another, and it all snowballed from there. I have 64 corns now, Western Honoses, Albino Nelsons, Scaleless Texas Ratsnakes ect. I am now expanding into Ball Pythons...and then who knows where or when it will stop lol!!
The most single important thing is to properly care for your herps, be it you have 1 or 100. :)
