    Desert ghost and pastel enchi?
    Stopped by a local pet store and I'm thinking about getting these snakes.

    Let me know what you think of the ID'S and prices please.

    This one was called a male Mojave but looks more like desert ghost to me: $150 approximately 1000g

    These were called pastel enchiy females, smaller one $250 the other $300. Approximately 200 to 300 grams.

    There is no Mojave in that picture. It looks like a Normal, a Pastel, and perhaps a Fire. The Pastel Enchi appear to be labeled correctly.

    Thank you, what do you think of the prices? Fair?

    Here's another shot of the 'mojave' it really looked grey in person.

    That first picture didn't look like a mojave, but the two in this picture are. Are you sure someone didn't just mislabel that first animal? I don't think desert ghost is a very realistic possibility, as that's a thousand plus dollar morph. As much as we'd like to, we just don't find gems like that at a common pet store. More likely a fire or something like that.

    Ahem. Step #1 would be to have a chat with them about Why the HECK those snakes are housed together....!!!

    Relax. It's a retail store display and not representative of long term housing.

    Yes, it's a thing and, no, it's highly unlikely that they move them at night. There are many practices that we certainly wouldn't put in place in our own collections that are standard while an animal is on display for purposes of being sold. The goal of a their business is to make money - not to see their animals into retirement. :)
