Trade?

I have a little 100 gram male mojave ball python for sale, and someone just offered a trade for their 6' female anery BCI. I'm still pretty clueless on boa morphs, so is this a good trade? I have no idea what anery's are worth, and the only thing I could find was a baby for $125 and an adult male for $300. Since anery is recessive, I don't know if it would be a good trade for us or not. We could always resell, but I don't know how hard it is to sell full grown boas?
Should I make the trade or pass?

I would make the trade.

Id make the trade! :gj:

(Assuming the snake is healthy).

Do you have space for the Boa?

Oh and ask how old she is. You dont want it if she has been power fed.

As many others have told me here, do what makes you happy :)

I just traded a 1.1 pair if het g stripes for a BCI hog island boa. While I think just the female would have been worth the trade both makes my end a little crappy, deal wise, but I didn't have them in any plans or anything so I traded them and I am happy. Sad to see some lived animals go but if I'm going to get in this industry I have to get used to it now!!!

Females can attain lengths of 8-9 feet and should have a minimum cage size of 5x2x2 or similar....

A 6 foot female should not be less than 3 years old.

Both very important to consider!


But as far as basic value, an adult female anery BCI for a 100gm male mojave is about an equal trade in my opinion. Maybe even favors you - you're getting an adult female for a juvenile male. If you want to work with boas, if you pick up a hypo het anery male, you can make ghosts which are a very nice morph - and that's only the tip of the iceberg as anerys combine well with several genes. :gj:
