Last year I was able to get hatchlings for only $30 each on kingsnake and they ended up being two females so larger than I wanted so I come on here to look for some and people are asking $175 for regular ones and I've seen some ornate asking for $600! Is there something with Diamondbacks happen within the last year that make them so expensive all of a sudden?
 
Normal baby northern and concentric babies are the cheapest of the diamondbacks. They range from $20- $100 for babies but as they get bigger and older go up in price like with most reptiles. The other sub species of diamondback are $150- $1000, with ornate usually being $500- $1000 depending on colors. It's been those prices for at least 2 or 3 years
 
Thanks for the info. I figured out the northern and ornate deal, but then this breeder was selling hatchlings without specifying what they were until I asked and told me she had Mississippi and Texas DBT. $125 for Mississippi and $200 for Texas. So that is when I made this post because that really confused me because based on the pictures those prices seemed outrageous to me.

Got lucky and the same breeder I bought some from in 2014 had another batch and I was able to get another Northern and Concentric for $150 shipped. He had the Northerns 10 for $275, but the ad disappeared after 1 day. Glad I got my 2 before someone nabbed them all. Now just hope I end up with 1 male out of the 2.
