    How to price Ball Pythons

    I have 2 two-year-old cinnamon ball pythons. One male and one female (same clutch) I've raised them since they were babies. I'm wondering how I should price them (each) if I am to locally sell them? What is a fair market price? (Snakes alone, not caging). I live in the USA. Prices have shifted a lot since I bought my female cinnamon... and since I don't see them listed around me for a single gene, I'm not sure.

    I see cinnamon pythons in the United States (online) go for anywhere between $80 to $130. Of course, it's ultimately up to you to put a price tag on the snakes you choose to sell. You could try hit somewhere in the middle like $100, perhaps a bit more for the female. You could also list them slightly on the higher end, if nobody shows interest or approaches, knock the price down?

    2 years old you are looking at $50/$75 for the male depending on quality and if it is proven, female you are looking at $100/$150 depending on quality/weight/proven or not.

    Female is 1047 grams. (Her mama was slow to grow as well and is smaller than my normal which is about 5.5 ft?) (She also ate a rat 2 days ago.) She's a steadier eater than he is.

    Male is about 641 grams. (no rat in him)

    I tend not to force my snakes up to breeding weight and let them reach the mark at 3 years. Neither are proven.
