    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.

i would like to buy an ivory or piebald python i know tht i may be crazy but i would like to find one with out spending over 450.00 so if anyone could help me out i would greatly appreciate it i dont want it to breed just to have i think they are beautiful and my wife likes them to please email me at [email protected] thank you very much
 
I'm looking for a spotnose and a calico for $50.
 
While we're wishing, I'd like a pair of clowns and a trio of lavender albinos, willing to pay up to $500 per animal. Might go $550 if they are over 3000g each. :D
 
That's rather like saying you'd love to get a lamborgini for under $1000. Oh, I won't really be driving it much. I just think they are pretty.
Not... real.... likely.

i would not mind finding one that someone has neglected and give it a good home.i ahve a couple reps that were adoptions cause some people like pets for 15 min then forget about them.so if anyone has one that is in need of love and a warm place to live you can contact me too any type of rep.i dont like to see neglected animals.ty
 
I don't think anyone has a 2-3,000 dollar snake that they just "forget about"...you won't find what you're looking for that cheap. Sorry dude..that's just the way it is.

You can visit any pet store and get an awesome normal for no more than a hundred bucks that someone "just forgot about".
 
and cars are not animals even though alot of you guys treat them like it. hey look at my shiney toy dont touch it though i dont want finger prints on it. i am so cool cause it cost so much money. animals are not cars so please dont refer them to each other. and i use my car , and love my animals. thank you very much and have a wonderful day. pykleman
 
i have several normal ones that i bought from local pet stores.that is not what i am looking for i did not write this thread to make people mad just to see if anyone that had the type i was looking for wanted to be nice and sell it for the price i offerd but i seem to have offended people dont know why just asked a question sorry that people cannot worry about themselves and have to be all up in mine. if you dont like the price i said dont sell me one its quite simple i thought sorry to who i offended
 
Michael try your hand at breeding. Do some research and pick yourself up a pair of hets pieds. You can pick up a good quality pair of hets for probably around $1000...probably out of your budget, but wouldn't it be a pretty rewarding experience for a first time breeder to produce that awesome ball that they've always wanted? That's what i'm doing...i can't afford a pied, but het pieds weren't out of my price range. IMO..it's worth waiting a couple of years...it's an awesome ride...i'm sure a lot of breeders will tell you that. but hey, just my 2 cents...you don't have to follow my path. make your own. either way, good luck in your decision :thumbsup:

thompsom moore:

I import from Tanzania and Ghana.They have real ball python deals,although i breed myself.It is not on large scale.I breed mostly my favourites and rare morphs.and also the essence why i sell cheaper is that i import and sell to other breeder and wholesalers who then sell to the public.It is of lately that i decided to get in contact with individuals.besides you must understand that this is the pricelist for babies and a few sub adults of this categories.the adults left are mostly my breeding group.I sold a great deal of adults this season.

All my balls are defrost feeders feeding on rodents every seven days,all morphs weigh below 1000grams.I am located in seattle,washington.

Yes of course i do ship.i ship very carefully and in safe packs.i ship in styro boxes,well heated in winter and ventilated in summer.snakes are bagged at shipping.shipping is 102 out of the US.

Scammer!!!!! Fake email accounts, he knows what they say because it is just him replying. LOL!!! Ask him for a phone number to call him at so you can line up a bulk purchase. It won't happen. He more than likely isn't in the US, how many americans say "Cheers".
 
lol, yeah. i almost asked the "references" but how easy would it be to have 3 email accounts? i have like 4 or 5 haha..
 
and cars are not animals even though alot of you guys treat them like it. hey look at my shiney toy dont touch it though i dont want finger prints on it. i am so cool cause it cost so much money. animals are not cars so please dont refer them to each other. and i use my car , and love my animals. thank you very much and have a wonderful day.

Michael,

Just read your post above and think for a minute about how it sounds. You want cool and expensive morphs without paying what people ask for them. People that have those morphs have usually worked hard for them. You want a pied at a minimum cost? That’s great and it can be done!

As someone already suggested buy a baby male 100% hetero for pied from a reputable source (they cost less than females). You can buy for approximately $200 (if you have trouble finding one I can put you in touch with one of the breeders). Buy four nice normal baby females for let’s say $150 (I have just saved you $100 from your initial investment). Grow them to breeding size (3 years). Then breed the male to the females. If you do everything right you might end-up with let’s say 16 healthy 50% possible hetero for pied babies, maybe 8 of them females. Grow them for another 3 years and breed them back to the male, if you are lucky enough you will end up with even more than one pied. It will only take 7 years of waiting and you will have what you want (that’s basically why they cost what they cost). There are no cutting corners in breeding ball pythons (and in life).

There's one trick though, by the time you reached your goal what you spent in time, electricity, feeding, and miscelaneous expenses will more than likely exceed the price of that "cool" morph at that point in time. But it won't matter anyways as it is not the money you are after but simply something you have always wanted.

Best of lucks. :)
