Actually, I don't sell normal females as a rule so it's not about buying from me or not ... I couldn't care less .... my point was ... as someone that lives, eats, and breathes, ball pythons as a hobby and a business 24 hours a day, I can say with great confidence that female ball pythons being sold for $30 are not captive bred. And if you're finding them on Reptile Auction, you're in even worse shape ... that place is the arm pit of the industry.
Hope that cleared things up a little. :D

ralph davis has two for sale......they are $5000 each....and both males...
ha ha....and they are both possible DH for pied and lav. albino...
Ringers are kinda random but they usually appear in 'other than normal x normal' clutches due to the fact that most people are not breedeing normal x normal. Because of this, alot of ringers may also be hets... so you can expect to pay the het price + extra in that case.
You just have to search around for that kinda stuff :)

CH snakes also can have great temperments and eat f/t, live, or pk .... I could show you 100 baby ball pythons and there's no way you'd ever know which ones are CH and which are CB. For $30, the snake was most likely an CH import that was purchased for $12 and marked up 2.5 times. I've been working in the hobby/business for almost 10 years and have seen it happen thousands of times.
CH ball pythons out number CB in the United States by about 100 to 1.
