I'm just curious as to where you think you'll be getting new pets after yours die in a couple of years?
I doubt any one who really cares about this hobby looks at animals like numbers, or "Trading cards". BHB and NERD might have a virtual ton of snakes going through their faculties every day, but they do have animals they consider pets. ("Satan" the burmese comes to mind.)
I think what you have confused is offspring/breeding stock/pets. Offspring being animals you produce from animals you will keep for all if not their entire lives, and at the end of their breeding career will most likely become pets.
From what I've concluded from various communities, is that breeders adore their snakes as much as any one would a dog or cat, and want to share that with the rest of us, by producing animals we might keep as pets.

When it comes to animals I really don't trust people to take care of them. I'm a bleeding heart for kids and animals.
