    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.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    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 bred my first clutch of Pythons

Hey,
I just hatched my first clutch of eggs. The breeding pair was a male bumblebee and a female Pastel. I had a clutch of 5 eggs and I got the following. 1 male normal, 1 female normal, 1 male super pastel, 1 male killer bee, and 1 male bumblebee. I took them to a local reptile store that specializes in exotic snakes and they told me they would buy the lot for $800. They admittedly low-balled me saying I could get much more on the open market for them but they have to make a profit. They offered to trade me for a female pie-bold with a great color pattern but i don't know if I wanna trade all 5 for 1 especially not the killer and the super pastel. Can somebody tell me what these snakes are really worth?
I finally posted this in the right place I think

Omg, I would have taken the piebald! lol, But admittedly I don't know the true monetary value of all your snakes (which are beautiful by the way) I spend forever looking at any piebald I see for sale and drool over it:eek:

I haven't bred any balls yet. All mine are too young!
 
I almost took the Pie bold...but it was only valued at 850, and I've heard that my killer bee alone is worth around that much so I didn't wanna cut myself short IF i COULD make more money off of my snakes. They're my first clutch so they are kinda special to me, but they're all males so I don't need them for my breeding.
 
Depends alot on how good they look and size. If you stuck to a price you might get 1.5 to maybe 2k. If they are all real hot maybe more, maybe not. Take a look at the classifieds here and on kingsnake. Prices are always changing depending on quality and amount out there.

I wouldn't of taken piebald. Then again I'm not a piebald fan. You might be different.
 
I wouldn't take the pied, the trade just isn't worth it. List them up for sale and buy the pied :D If you want the puied that is. Or I'm sure someone would trade the killer male for a pied. Check in the classifieds for prices.

That pastel male is sweeet!! :thumbsup:

Good luck!!
 
I probably shouldn't have, but I joined 2 of the identical threads that were placed in different forums. It made things a little disjointed (looks like there are two separate conversations taking place....because there were). I'm not going to add to the mess by joining the last one. Please don't randomly post the same thing all over the place.
