    what should I get?

    I am looking into getting a pair of ball pythons to raise up and breed. I came across this guy on fauna and the prices are great. There's just one problem, I don't know what to get. If you could get a male/female pair what would it be?http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/foru...d.php?t=516629

    This guys prices are a red flag for me and I wouldn't pay a cent before seeing these snakes in person. It's possible I'm jumping to conclusions, but I have very little faith in ads like this.

    If something seems too good to be true, it usually is.

    Re: what should I get?

    If you are firm on the price ( and cool with the wobble ) I'd be tempted with a female pastel enchi and a male spider.

    But basically scan the morph list on world of ball pythons and find one you like and get the genes that make it if you can.

    7 adult Royals (2.5), 1.0 COS Pastel, 1.0 Enchi, 1.1 Lesser platty Royal python, 1.1 Black pastel Royal python, 0.1 Blue eyed leucistic ( Super lesser), 0.1 Piebald Royal python, 1.0 Sinaloan milk snake 1.0 crested gecko and 1 bad case of ETS. no wife, no surprise.

    I'd go for the lemonblast female and pastel enchi male. That's $150 but if you need to include shipping you'll go over that price. If I had to include shipping in the price I'd go for butter female and pastel enchi male(let's say plus $50 shipping). I've seen the guy at local expos before never done business with him so I can't speak for the health of his animals but he runs a legit business

    I would definitely pay through Paypal and make him send you an invoice through them so you have some form of recourse if it goes south. Or maybe pay with a credit card and if he doesn't deliver, call the card company and do a chargeback. His BOI seems fairly legit. From just glancing at, it seems he also sells third party snakes as well so not all are his own. I say go for broke and go for clown pieds!!!
