checking out info on breeders as a new buyer

Considering that the shipping cost on a pastel will be almost as much as the animal, I would look for a local breeder or go to an expo, and take someone experienced with you to look at the animal.

Just look for the best example of the morph you can find.

I have a fire from him as well actually. It absolutely glows. Its crazy. One of my favorites, I cant wait to try for fire bees with her!

To the OP, kingsnake.com has a local search that lets you see all the ads in your state. I would also recommend going to a local reptile show. Just google reptile show or expo + your state.

best of luck!

I found quite a few on my local ball python and reptile Facebook groups.

DZB Reptiles, Explicite Morphs and Preachers Pythons are all good breeders to do bussiness with. They are local to Florida area.
