I second that...whole-heartedly.
You post, wanting our condolences, in another thread...but as soon as people start talking sense and trying to convince you to find out what happened to your snakes, you completely ignore the thread and run off, make another thread and are wanting people to give you info on how to get more.

well today i believe i have found the problem, a couple weeks ago i purchased an anole to scent my mouse so one of my snakes would eat it. one day the anole was gone, i did not think much of it. to day i found his carcass in the tank. i called my lfs and asked them if the anoles could carry a parasite that could be infective to snakes. they said yes and one of the most common ones causes abnormalities in the spine thus most likely cusing him to look bent up

I haven't read your other posts about losing snakes.
But yes I have a Chondro, and I wouldn't recommend owning them unless you've had a lot of experience owning other species.
I don't know what kind of snakes you had that died, but I'd imagine they were probably more common species than Tree Pythons.
Do your homework and get an established cb Ball Python. By established, I mean that it's eating regularly and doesn't refuse meals.
I bred Boas and Pythons for several years before I ever owned Emerald Tree Boas and Chondros.

I am sorry....I just have some husbandry concerns here. You lose an anole? Don't think much of it? Just a concern. Please do not get a more difficult to keep snake before, as suggested, there is more experience (and success) gained. This is not to flame. But these are not disposable, replaceable animals.

well ive kept snakes for about 7 (almost 8 years now) which is most of my life and ive already got a cb ball python thats doin great. im working on my second breeding project (my first was in tegus) im currently breeding some kingsnakes, it will be a hypo brooks thayeri cross. as far as the anole goes i had not planned on keeping him long term, i needed him to scent some mice until my female king got use to eating regular mice. after that i was going to feed him to one of my other snakes. he was not so much a pet but a tool. im sry if this may seem cruel and inhumane but its really all we can do for finicky snakes. in fact ive found it was easier to get my fu manchu lion to eat as opposed to getting a baby snake to eat.

I'm sorry, but you're what?...13 years old, or younger? Everyone knows how old you are, here, so how are you gonna tell us that you've been keeping snakes for more than 7 years and been breeding them, etc.? Now, maybe your dad has been keeping snakes or maybe other family members, but you feed us a bunch of B.S. and expect us to believe it.
IMO, you have no regard for the animals you're currently keeping. You just lost two different snakes, both of which were two different species, and now less than 2 days later, you're looking for more specimens. You dont even know what killed the first two, dude.

I understand that it was not a pet. That is not the issue, but herp keepers don't just tend to "lose" such "tools" that could be a major threat to their animals. It leaves one wondering about husbandry and procedures, which I would expect to see in place...but when they are not, animals start to die. As unfortunately happened here.
I guess it is your money, and if that is all it is, so be it.

first off i just wanted to say i have been keeping snakes for 7 years ive only been breeding them for 2 tho. if i new the whole meaning of regard im sure i would be horribly insulted, but for now i will just blow off ur cowardish comment. i do have an idea of what killed the snakes, the anole that escaped (i found that the bars in the top of the cage the anole wer large enough for the small lizard to slip through) had a diasease that causes the spine to bend and lock up often causing death and paralysis in both types of squamata. and as for being being "not harsh" hehe u need some more practice. i did not know the anole could be a danger until i looked into a book of reptilian diaseases and complications. i did all that was in my power to figure out y these snakes died, the only thing left is to do an autopsy which is extremely exspensive for a 12 year old who is making nothing short of what he sells. all i wanted was a few recommendations as to where i may be able to purchase a chondro python or emerald tree boa and it turned into AW coming and turning this into a point of annoyance just so he could argue w/ a kid, infact rnt u AW2? i read that 500 of ur thousand posts wer dumb arguements.

As I have already said...my comments werent meant to be harsh. Nor was I the only one to say such things.
Also, regard means to have or show respect or concern for. From this post and your previous posts, it shows that you have no concern for the animals, nor respect.
We're not going to turn this into a arguement. Take mine and the others recommendations, or not...it doesnt matter to us. We're just trying to help.
