Buying BP!

So I'm going to be buying a BP soon and I'm planning on getting just a normal morph male and I live in Mankato, MN. Anybody know where I can get one other than a pet store. I don't trust them. I've done research for weeks on BP and i know more than the employees and I've never even owned one!

If there are any reptile shows coming near you that would be a good option. Other than that checking if you have any local breeder around you! I believe Morph Market has a filter where you can search based on location so maybe see if anyone is near you?

alternatively you could buy online. There are also some breeders here on this forum :)

I'm sure you can find a local shop or breeder.
And yes, you should avoid the big box pet stores. You're asking for more trouble than anything and they are ridiculous on pricing.

Are there any expos coming up in your area? That's a great place to get a snake if you can get to one. Lots and lots of options.

welcome and glad u did your research. :)

here's the MorphMap: http://www.morphmarket.com/us/stores/map/?cat=bps just zoom in on your state/area to look for breeders. looks like there's quite a few in the Twin Cities.

also here's a good resource on upcoming expos: http://www.kingsnake.com/events/index.php looks like there's one in mid-July in Minneapolis.
