trying to find BP

i know that there are a lot of sites out there to order BP's from but im not having any luck. either they r rediculously priced for breeding or they dont have what i want. my wife wants her own BP so i plan on getting one for christmas. anybody got any good suggestions??

Do you want a morph or just a normal ball python? I would try contacting some local breeders around you and see if you can go and pick one up yourself. If you want a normal, males are very inexpensive. Most breeders sell them under $40.

i have a female normal now and the only BP's i can find out here r normals and i was looking to get a morph of some kind. ive been looking for breeders near me but havent found any yet

oh ya and also. what do butters usually go for. i really like those but i cant seem to find a price for them. just pics

well whats your price range?? because if its on the les $ side of morphs i would say a pastel ranging anywhere from 125-250 .. the better pastels being more in the 200 range.. ummm mabye a spider but those are normaly at or over 300...

but if you don't mind spending more money on one i would say go with a BUMBLE BEE (SPIDER + PASTEL). those are anywhere from 700-1,000..

and if you wanted something that holds its color as it gets older... then get a killer bee.. (super pastel + spider).. but those range from 2,000 - 3,000 or a super pastel (pastel _ pastel) those being anywhere from 600-800 .. so there are some ideas for you!!!

as for where you should you get them.. go to google and type in ball python breeders.. a lot of good name breeders should come up.. i got my 1st morph (lemon pastel female) from www.jdconstriction.com and i love her!!! she is very healthy and has very good bright yellow and a lot of blushing!!!!

Im gonna have to disagree here on this one no hard feelings BUT... you can find a pastel yes in the range between 125 and 150 but i have seen them as low as 100 to 75 dollars.... Have you tried faunaclassifieds. Also spider do NOT run between 300 you can get a really nice spider for about 125. Honestly your best bet if you want to get a decent morph and if your wife dosent plane on breeding or anything get her a spider or pastel they are really nice.

Plus if you do decide to breed it you can make some nice morphs as well.
Let me know what exactly you want and i can refer you to some people remember that breeding season is in effect so that will limit things...

Good luck

Hatchling butters/lessers are around $300-400 if my memory serves me right.

butters r good and i like spiders. i tend to like the lighter color morphs. r the snakes usually cheaper after breeding season? y should the price change on a 09 born in august or so?

09's will just get more expensive from here on out. Breeding season ends around the beginning of summer or late spring. So if you want anything cheaper you will have to wait until then.
