Not to put a dampner on things but have you got 100k to invest in Royal Python morphs and mutiple breeding age females of expensive morphs as the prices are coming down rapidly and you would be lucky to get €400 for an adult albino Royal female nowadays and I know people who have spent 2000+ pounds on hatchlings and by the time they breed them which would be around 3 years they would not be making much considering the amount of them available nowadays and Royals ain't exactly prolific breeders having 7-9 eggs if your lucky to breed them successfully that is. I am keeping reptiles over 10years and have seen all the trends from burm's,boa's,cornsnakes, leopard geckos you name it and I have kept most. You would want to be selling snakes for a few grand each and be getting ahead of other breeders in the process by breeding alot and expensive ones at that.

That's pretty cheap, by courier or animal shipping service?

After doing a lot of searching for prices i realized the small shipping company's give the best deals and prices. Also there are one or two small company's that personalize in shipping reptiles which i would feel more comfortable dealing with as the snakes health is my main priority.

I highly doubt that price is correct bout shipping to america , also i doubt you would have many buyers over their theirs some amount of great breeders and selling snakes at better prices that you could probly sell at
