    Tricky, because you have no female to go with him. A pair would go for $1000 plus or minus, but the boy by himself, maybe a just a few hundred?

    EDIT: There's one for sale at http://market.kingsnake.com for $400 right now.

    Do you have any girlfriends for him?

    That's what I was thinking maybe like 300-400 just cause he's breeding size. Idk I'm gonna take him to Myrtle this weekend and see what I can get. Got him for cheap so anything more is easy profit.

    Nope just saw a business opportunity. Unless I just want to make hets.

    So you wanna resell him? Realistically, you might have a hard time getting $400, though--they really are worth more as a pair.

    If you breed him to a non-het girl, you'll get 50% hets. I'd recommend upping the ante by getting him a nice MATURE pastel girlfriend. Or pinstripe or spider--then you have pastel/pinstripe/whatever 50% het for lavender. That makes the possible hets much more attractive.

    Hi,

    It probably depends on your personal plans.

    I know a herd of wild horses couldn't drag him from my hands.

    What female BP's do you have?

    A generation of various morph offspring all 50% lavender albino would have me hugging random strangers in the street.

    If you think you're seeing a financial gain now try and imagine the possibilities once those got to breeding size. Take a year and prove them out and you have the basis for a truly kickass breeding group.
