Have you tried looking on kingsnake and fauna and similar places to see if similar snakes are for sale and what the asking price is?

Re: price check
I would say $200 tops
Three factors:
Male
Pastel
Het
Males are inexpensive
Pastels are easy to come by
Nobody pays much of a premium for hets,
Now a female, different story.

people might want this male, so that they can breed it to a visual female clown, and hatch out a male pastel clown, and then replace the male pastel het clown with the male pastel clown.
clown is still kinda rare and in demand.
the main problem is that its a male and its a het, so it will make itself useless by producing a better male quite easily, at which point it gets sold again.
males reach sexual maturity real fast, so the fact that its a big and heavy and ready to breed male does not really affect the price all that much. you only get the big price increases for additional weight with females. so when you found similar ones (which might be hatchlings) in the 200-250 range, i would put this one at 250-300 maximum. the pastel looks high quality and it has some weight, but that is not enough to change the price by more than a little bit.
