    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Just like my title says. I am wondering what the price range is for a hatchling female black pastel would be. I haven't seen many for sale but I my be looking for one so I would like to see if anyone hear knows the range. Thanks in advance.
 
That depends entirely on the individual snake. (I know you said range; but when the range can reasonably be expected to vary by a few hundred dollars, it isn't a very useful tool. As an example, there were recently a few breeder male black pastels advertised in the $200-250 range....and I put mine up at $500and he sold faster than the less expensive ones)
 
You pay for quality, you could probably find one for around $250 but I'd look around until you find the exact qualities you are looking for in a black pastel. Look up pictures and stuff to find the better looking ones and go from there.
 
I recently bought a 350 gram female for $350 shipped... I'm happy with my purchase...

As mentioned there is quite a range in quality/appearance with this morph, so shop around wisely. On the other hand while this morph is by no means "rare", they are also available much less often than many others, making "shopping around" more difficult...
