    I would stick with what you have. I have a lot of animals myself, most I saved, two I bought. Over all I have 11 mouths to feed, thats not including my insect colonies. Working full time, going to school part time, and having a social life gets tough sometimes when you have so many animals to take care of. Plus you have to consider who will take care of them if you need to go out of town.
    I always want more but I have gained a tough will power to just say no. If I were you I would stay away from pet stores. If you do need to go for supplies I would just stay away from looking at what the pet store is selling. I will be going to a reptile expo in a month and I will be giving my wallet to my sister in law and I told her to only give me my wallet if I am buying supplies.

    Stick with what you have for a while. It's easy to get addicted to the awesome feeling of getting new exotic animals, trust me, we all struggle with it XD

    Do you tong feed your animals? Tong feeding makes me feel closer to my animals, plus I end up spending a lot more time with them than I would otherwise. This is a great way to distract yourself from wanting more pets :P

    Shop for pet supplies online (amazon.com is awesome) instead of in pet stores. This will help you not be tempted to buy more animals.

    I definitely agree about sticking with what you have. I've did that so many times with pets when I was younger and almost always regretted it (it was so hard balancing multiple critters, work, school, regular life, my family, etc.) The feeling is great to get more but then you realize after that wears off, you're all "omg what will I do with all of them!" I'd give it some time, adjust to your job and see how it is taking care of what you have. Then go from there. (This is coming from someone with one cat, one dog and soon 2-3 frogs - that'll be my max for a loooong time!)
