    Looking to buy my second Ball Python

    ..Oct 13 I'm going to the reptile show on Long Island. I bought my first male BP Sept8 at the reptile show in White Plains,NY. I paid $75 for a Baby Male Ghost BP.

    Im looking to buy another baby BP and looking to spend anywhere from $25-$150. I seen reg baby BP going for like $25. I know the morphs and blends are more expensive. So for $75-$150 what kind of babies can expect to get my hands on at that price?

    i already kow the few types I'm looking for and have no problem getting something else. I didn't want the Ghost originally,but the price was good and he was active and nosey and pretty and looked really healthy. So I went with him and I'm very happy with him.

    any help would be appreciated. TY

    I'm not going to get into the price difference with male/females but I'll give you a ball park idea.

    spider, pastel, pinstripe, lesser, butter, fire, mojave and I know there's more but just to give you an idea. It's going to have to be a single gene snake and males will be cheaper just a heads up. Also the single gene snake will have to be something that has been around for quite awhile.

    Cool man, and yes I meant to specify but forgot to. I am looking for another male. Single gene thing is cool with me,not looking to breed or do anything crazy. What I really wants a banana,pied,axanthic or black pastel

    thnx Neal

    A black pastel regular you can probably find for under $150, or should be able to rather. This does not include the Liesen line as his are more expensive. A visual pied is going to be well out of that price range as will a banana/coral glow.

    For a visual pied male you're looking at well over $300, then the cheapest coral glows right now are $1500 for a male.

    Wow,yeah man,I saw some ,pieds that is,when I was at the reptile convention on the 8th...they were all about 300-350 to 900$. I figured those would be pricey,maybe down the road,but a reg black pastel would be awesome. I did see a fair share of BPs at the convention from 75-150 bt was looking at so much I didn't pay so much attention. Atleast now I know what I want and what to expect price wise.. Yeah I'll prob spend 100-150. I should be able to find something,if not I can always go with a reg BP there super cheap.

    whats a Liesen line?
