    Banana ball python

    Ok so we all know that the Banana is the holy grail to ball pythons. From my understanding they are a co-dom snake. My question is, why are there not alot of them flooding the market? is it to keep prices high? why are they so rare? i have never seen one even offered for sale, i hope someone can clarify.

    First there aren't allot of them for sale because they are the Holy Grail so far..

    There aren't allot of them flooding the market because the market for a $25,000.00 snake is very narrow.

    There out there for sale..you just have to know where to look.

    Re: Banana ball python

    I completely agree that as of now they are the holy grail of morphs. I honestly cannot think of a better looking snake that isn't a combo morph. That fact that these are a base morph is just amazing.

    You have to love this snake and all it's potential.

    Nice!
    Still many unknowns about this morph. This year should shed shed some more light.(I hope). The black speckles and the black eyes are crazy! Combos should be awesome.
