    There are lots... Lessers, Pastels, Spiders, Fires, enchi, the list goes on. You would even be able to get a combination like a bumblebee or Kingpin. There are lots and I guarantee there will be such a variety you will probably spend the whole day choosing from multiple vendors. Do not be too hasty and buy the first you see just because its pretty. Shop around and pick the one you want most.

    Bumblebee was my first morph, I really like those! Those should be in your price range. You may be able to get a Champagne, which are nice imo, but get what you like. Most of the single genes will be below $200 unless it's a new morph. There should be some double genes in your price range.

    Be aware that Spiders and the related morphs can show defects of wobble and worse .....

    With a $200 allowance at an expo there are a ton of males you could get and close to that many females.
    Age and weight can play a part too.
    Are you looking for a pet or possible breeder?

    Definitely get something that you are fond of. Just shop around and consider going the "het" route to get the most out of your dollars. If that is something you want to deal with. You may even find a pair of hets for that amount of money.... Double hets.
