    Pastel but for that one itd have to go for about 200...if male 150 and no more...too bad its scarred and if its picky even worse since alot of us dont really do ASFs but im sure you can get it on rats or mice if you work with it. I have a pastel female who was very picky and took me about 4 months before she actually took a rat and now she pounds them like nothing. :snake:

    It has been well taken care of since then apparently. Sheds well now, but is still on live, multiple mice per feeding. Price is def. good, they are asking $150. Downsizing.

    Are you sure its female?? That sounds like the price for a male. I would say that even given the scars and the fact that they are downsizing $150 is way too low for a female that size. Something smells fishy, I would make sure it was in fact a female.

    Buy with your eyes!!! We paid 500 for a 500 gram female, she is our best example of a pastel:salute:

    Apparently she feeds fine now, on live mice (not ASF, that was the previous owner). She has healed up and is shedding okay now. She does live with another female ball in a very large cage, but it sounds like they are getting good care. I think I can get her for $100.

    That's an oxymoron. :colbert:

    That would be good if you can get her for $100 IF she is a she and IF you dont expect to get a great looking clutch from her.:gj:

    Could I not get a good looking clutch with a good looking male though? And it is a bad pic, maybe she looks better in person. She has nice blushing.

    Youd probably end up with middle ground. Theyd be better looking than mom, but probably no where near as nice looking as dad. Personally, Id pass considering its a morph as common as a pastel. With a flooded market, its going to get harder and harder to sell pastels unless they are great examples.

    Well I just got this girl(hopefully girl, I'll see if I can get her properly sexed soon) and she is actually quite lovely. The scarring really isn't that bad, and her colouring is actually really nice, she seems to be more yellow than my males. I really really really hope she is a she!! I did get it for $100 though, so good price either way. Really nice lady, just wanting to downsize and more concerned about finding good homes than about money.
    I haven't had a chance to take really good pics yet, but I'll get some tonight, I want to give her a more thourogh going over too.
