ugh!! i cant decide!!!

4350g is a huge female... Most of them only get up to around 2000g. There are lots of exceptions to that though. Someone posted a video recently and one of the snakes in it was a 5500g female!

If I were you, I'd spend the extra and get a female. That way, if you decide to breed in say, a year or two, you can pick up a male and they'll both be up to size at the same time. But yeah, probably $300-350 is what you'll pay. I've seen people selling 2-3 year old female pastels for $600 -_- Stupid Canadian ball python market....

In Canada, a good quality Male Pastel will run $200 maybe $250. A good quality female Pastel will be closer to $300-$350.

I'll be at the April 25th expo in Missisauga. Can't wait. :)

I got my male for $170 and I personally think hes a stunning example.

Is April 25th the next Mississauga expo? I'm not going to the one today but I'm definately going to the next one.

Yes, April 25th is the next Mississauga show. It'll be hard not to dip into my savings!

Haha, I'll have enough trouble on the saving part. Teen + Money = Not a good combo. And I doubt I'll even be able to buy anything. I'll really be pushing it with another ball python or another snake for that matter. Possibly a gecko or two.
