    Ehh depends on the quality, the seller, and the motivation to sell. I would think its an 08, so $1000 seems reasonable, but the seller might want more. I would just talk it over with them and see what their willing to do.

    The Butter is not breed able yet, you don't want her to get egg bound. Also females might not even breed for a year or more after being moved, so don't get your hopes up too high.

    Well think about it this way. By the time that snake is ready to breed, it wll be about 1800 grams and just ready to go. A hatchling will cost you about $350, so you would need to wait 2 years for the baby, or wait a couple months to a year for the older one to be ready, but you can have a lot more eggs with a 2000+ gram female.

    These are the things i think of, it might be worth it to you, but personally, i wouldn't spend $1200 shipped on a female butter unless she was at least 1500 or 1600 grams.
