At a Crossroads need some opinions...

I'd go with the geckos, but I think that the guy selling them to you is stretching the truth about paying $400 for the one or he got ripped off.

Well the caging is two big steralite containers with perches and lots of plants and is including everything they currently have.

*** UPDATE ***

Crazy events have been throwen into the mix!!! So the guy that is selling the snakes held a contest and my brother WON the free Female Pastel haha it was crazy!!! So now the choice is

1.2 CRESTED GECKOS with everything included caging and such included...


0.2 Ball Pythons ---- Mojave 66% and a Pastel.

Tough choice, but the caging isn't what I was thinking. If it was an exo-terra terrarium then I'd say geckos, but now I say go for the balls!

Cresties are great...but I'd go for the balls too! That Mojo girl is a hottie and since you'll be getting the pastel anyway, you may as well go for the Balls. Especially since she fits so nicely into your breeding plan. ;)

This is certainly somewhat hypocritical of me, but maybe get a crested gecko for a pet for a while before buying a trio with intentions of breeding them? You could get a gecko and make the whole setup yourself for probably 50 bucks.
