The problem I see with breeding loans is this:

1-Are you a lawyer, able to draw up a binding contract?
2-Who is going to have liability if one or both of the snakes die? What if one dies, what if one is sick, and you do not catch it in time, and it infects the other snake?
3-What if you get an unusual animal, a new morph or cool pattern?
4-What happens if the person doing the incubating all of a sudden says the eggs went bad, and 3 months later is selling YOUR ball python babies online?
5-It could go on and on....there are 1000 bad outcomes, and very few good outcomes. It just would have to be very unusual circumstances for me to do a breeding loan.
