Re: Price for lavander
I would buy one from a breeder as opposed to the pet store, less risk of it being unhealthy. And as I have not done too much research on prices of lavenders, the prices can vary on corns depending on what hets. they have. A basic lavendar with no hets is going to cost you less than a lavender with hets for other morphs. I would just compare that with some of the prices of corn breeders online. I would give you links to some of them but the last time I looked at them I just googled them and don't know any of the sites that I looked at offhand. I hope this helps you some.

No idea about the price... BUT DO NOT buy from a pet store.
I got my two snakes from them pet places and they both came with mites! YUCK!
I'd order one in off the internet!

I wouldn't say don't buy from a pet store; but buy with extreme cautioin. I have seen a couple of mom and pop stores that took excellent care of their animals; but most do not.
I would say anywhere from $40-50 for a plain lavender.

The price also depends on where you are at. Here, a normal corn will go for 60-80 and a morph of any kind over 100.

Re: Price for lavander
Lavenders are still rather pricey, $75 is reasonable if it's healthy. At the local show lavenders go for $70-75
