Would you...

Buy a 3 yr old Pastel Male for 150? I also found a het albino male and female for 100 each. Yes or no, need advice.

Male pastel is a good price. Male het is high female is cheap. Usually you can pick up het albino pairs for 200 and lone males for 50.

I'd be iffy on the hets, females go for around $250 males for 50-75. I got my pastel male 2+ years ago for $150 so if it is a true pastel at that age I'd say go for it

Hmmm...the lady that has the pastel male also has a female that had a clutch of 8 eggs, both for 160. Should I buy the het albino pair for 200 or the pastel/normal for 160? Also, what kind of clutch can I expect to have with a normal x pastel, or a het albino x pastel?

Normal x Pastel= 50% normal 50% pastel
Het albino x Pastel= 25% normal 25% pastel 25% possible het albino 25% possible het albino pastel

IF the het albinos come with genetic paperwork and guarentee I'd get the pastel and het albino female, if it doesnt come with any guarentee of being het i'd skip them and get the normal/pastel

hets are kinda iffy unless you get them from a reputable breeder. anyone can get some normals worth $25 and sell them for a couple hundred.

pass on the hets, good deal on the pastel though.

These answers are the reason I am so grateful for this site. Thank you all for your help, seriously. Im going to talk to the lady tomorrow and get her pastel. Ill have a collection of a whole 2 snakes, a normal male and a pastel male. Now I just have to wait and find the perfect female. Lol whatever I feel the onset of a lifelong hobby, and I cant wait to build my first rack.

^ I agree ^ Good price for the pastel, I got my male pastel earlier this year for $150, he's 3. Too expensive for the male het, you can get them for $50. Very cheap for the het female, you normally see them for $200-250. And ditto, any hets make sure they have paperwork.

I just want to add to what every one has been saying about hets. They have to come from a reputable breeder. Paperwork from someone that isn't reputable isn't worth much.

Why arent you getting the normal female if its only 160 for the pair? I might have read it worng but just askin
