Which should I choose? $100 or two baby balls?

Hmm 1700 g is worth more than 100 bucks if you really wanna get rid of her take black back male ( you can always try prove his genetics and ) and female you can always make couple buck of her or keep her if she is nice but.... IMO If I had nice 1700 g female and I was thinking.about breeding project ill be wait and spend some money for nice codom or Dom male
(you can buy nice pastel or yellowbelly breeding size male for 150-200 bucks) and breed her this winter
Just my opinion .....

Well you already know my thoughts on the subject..though I'm a bit torn between the two myself..lol..I mean yea..taking money for her would be great to go towards a nice rack system..and then selling the tanks off to make more money for more snakes is a GREAT IDEA!..But at the same time..if you get the two ball pythons you were offered..you said I could have the female..so that tempts me to tell you to take the 2 snakes that were offered to ya..lol..but the logical answer I would say is take what cash you can get for her..in the long run it's a better investment..lol

In my opinion, neither of those two deals is perfect. The going rate for females in general is about $100 per 1000 grams of weight, at least after they reach 1500 grams. I would price your girl between 150 to 170. So, offering 100 for her is quite lowball. Throwing in the tank makes it even worse!

Now, the young female in the other offer is probably worth maybe $60 tops. How much is a male blackback worth? If it doesn't add up to at least 150, I would go with none of the above--hold out for a better offer! Don't undersell just to do it quickly.

best answer i have heard so far. Thansk a lot and i told the dude that offered me so little no deal and he got mad. But i know shes worth more than that

You could easily trade a 1700 gram female for a pastel male, ask around.

You could trade a female that size for a proven breeder pastel male.

nevermind someone already said it lol.

I bought two baby beardies before I bought my Ball. It is a good decision to have both snakes and dragons.

it doesnt matter jsut make sure u have either nice and clean i own a beardie as well

I was thinking..If you don't trade or sell Hades by Aug 1st..you could always bring her to the reptile show and see if someone will trade you for her..for a male bp..You might get something nice out of it :0)
