    This is no longer true ;) the Canadian market has leveled out to reflect the U.S. market very nicely...I will give you a few examples of publicly offered prices, bear in mind that backdoor prices are, of course, much nicer than this ;):D I guess it just depends who ya know, but even the public prices are real nice ;) and Im not talking about crappy animals from nobodies here ;)

    1.0 Albino BCI- $650cdn($573usd)
    1.1 Hogg Island- $350cdn($309usd)
    1.0 Lesser Platinum Ball Python- $4000cdn($3531usd)
    1.0 Albino Ball Python- $1500cdn($1324usd)
    1.1 Het. Albino Ball Pythons- $650cdn($573usd)
    0.1 Low white Pied- $2800cdn($2471usd)
    1.0 50/50 Pied- $3000cdn($2648usd)

    Most Canadian breeders have wised up to the fact that animals could/can be bought for much less in the U.S. and have leveled prices a bit in order to avoid losing business to U.S. breeders ;)

    You can always try Gus at RioBravo, not sure if they ship to Canada though.

    Doesn't hurt to ask and they have 100% pure Hogs.

    you know i totally forgot about this... hidden reef in abbotsford 604-856-1433 has a pure hog island female right now... i think it's $300 - tell kathy aleesha sent ya and ask her if she can give you a deal :D - i know this little girl is a little nippy right now (she tried to tag me on the head twice one day) but she also had just been probed... so i'd be cranky too!

    anyway, give kathy a calll and ask about their hoggie! (she's very pretty)

    aww only female? I'm afraid I won't be able to properly house a adult female, so you have held it before? Do you think it's a pure? Do you think she has any males :p

    And oh yes I email RioBravo yesterday the answer is they do not ship to canada.... wat a pity...

    no she doesn't have a male... just the one female. she looks pure to me... much different than my cross that's for sure! :P but yes... she looks pure.

    why not call her (kathy) and see if she can get you a male?
