What's the most you've ever spent or would spend on a single bp?

Thanks I really actually like the Pastels and Ghosts would spend no more than 150 now but when I get older and have money to work with than that price will raise.[emoji4]

You can get a pair of het ghosts for $200 or less and a pair of pastels for around the same if you buy quality pastels it probably be around $200

Most I've spent was $80 on a proven male pin. My maximum, if I had this much money as a teen just sitting around, would probably be around $600 for a banana male or pied female or something of the sort.

My scale just keeps going up and up..but I'm also not married and have no kids. Haha I just put a down payment on a 2750$ fire clown and a pair of whitewash visuals for more then I should state. Haha

i spent $600 on my coral glow vanilla male, but i think i'd go up to as high as $1500 for the right morph, but i'm just an amateur at this stuff :rolleye2:

So far the most i've spent on a snake is 350 on my spinner blast boy. I know i could have gotten that morph for less but the breeder already had him on FT rat pups. I think I would go to 1k if i liked what i saw and it was a morph i wanted. I am not a breeder, I just have pets.

I think common multi gene codom's (3,4,5) are dead. You pay a bunch of money to get a convoluted mess of mostly worthless (from a making money back standpoint) babies when you breed unless you hit the odds and pack a few more genes in and somehow manage to get no normals or single genes snakes. I think people want new and exciting base and 2 gene snakes. Or multi ressessive and codom mixes. A fire lavender snow clown pie would hold value for a really long time. Just gotta hit those lotto odds though

If $50K were floating around I'd go scaleless head at this point.

Until the SH reaches my price point, I'll stick with Double Hets..... DH Hypo Clown, DH Albino Pied, DH Axanthic Pied. Triple Hets are not far down the road here. Recessives seem to fly off the shelf.

Exactly. I'm getting in ground level on the whitewash project and it's a triple ressessive. Albino, axanthic and whitewash. Add some clown and piebald in there...bammm! Or a lavender snow whitewash!!! Serious $$$

I'd go sunset or atomic if I had the money. But no het pairs, I'd get male visuals and female hets. That way you never get possible hets. Takes out the guess work. But hey, a single high expression whitewash would get me halfway into one of those projects. Fingers crossed.

$200 for an awesome looking Cinnamon.

For my collection so far....10,570. Excluding shipping

Balls not so much. $200. Retics is another story. Got probably $100k+ wrapped up in retics now.

That's a good deal! Where did you buy from?

From a reptile import place here, was purchased from the repticon show in LA, I have no idea which breeder but the store owner brought it back from the show for me.

I suppose I should update my answer here. Most I've spent on a bp was $450, including shipping for a black pastel ghost male

Just spent 1650 last night on a package deal. With some haggling got 10 in the deal. 8 female, 2 males.

750 picked up and saving up 2 grand for another cool snake

The most I have spend on a single BP is 450 euro's, 493 dollar for a Albino 100% het. Pied female, when I am gonna pick her up I'll also pick up a Pastel Yellow Belly female for 85 euro, 93 dollars so I would be spending 586 dollar that day.

I have however spend well over 4500 dollar total for all the snakes in my collection (including the Albino 100% het Piebald, Pastel Yellow Belly and a HGWG poss. Vanilla I still have to pick up)

Looking at those numbers I think I have to stop buying more BP's at the moment, though I still want a female with Black Pastel/Cinnamon in her and preferably close to breeding size, so probably I'll buy 1 more. haha

Most so far was $300.00 for my phantom, but for the right one (and funding) I could see spending about 5000.

I would love to get in on the recessive enhancer gene balls, they are so clean looking. But I cant see spending $2000 for a het one just yet (plus the wife would kill me). When they come down a little though definitely on my list.

I really want a bamboo but dam they are up their around 5000 for a female and males around 7500 and that's a single gene morph

$400-$500. If I was a breeder probably $1500.

I just bought my two highest priced bp's this week
I gave $750 for a 1400 gram 3yr old female GHI via kingsnake
and $650 for a baby male pastel blade clown at a reptile show yesterday (Thought that was a steal)
tho if I saw one that I had to have I would spend $2500-$3000 (not that i could afford that yay for payment plans)

Just spent $450 on a pastel piebald female and another $450 on a SuperFly female.

These are my most expensive so far, who knows what the future holds.

I am brand new to BP's and haven't really gone high end yet. I spent $600 on a group buy a month or so ago and will be picking up another group this weekend for just over $300, with the single price being $225 for one and the others are some normal and het babies for cheap.

Boas are another story. The most I ever paid was $3500 for an adult female sunglow about 7 years ago to breed to a $6500 motley het albino a buddy had. My current high dollar boas are $1k for an adult female leopard and $1200 for an adult motley het leopard male. Total of about $5k into boas at the moment collecting over the past couple of years.

If I had the dough, I would drop $25k on a pair of Scoria boas or a pair Super Fire Diamond boas or about $17k on a pair fire diamond boas.

I bought a Spider female which as you know are on the cheaper side. I really want... more snakes, but I have to lay off on getting another one for awhile. When I get my Masters and get a job that may be how I "celebrate", but I'd probably only spend about $300 on one. But that's because I'm not wealthy.

I put down a few bucks short of $300 for my Sterling Bp Alduin. This price includes the shipping which wasn't too bad since the breeder lives in my state. Lol. Would I spend more? Possibly for a nice BEL or mystic potion. My favs in the BP world. 😍

I'll jump in again. I think I've spent $350 before. That's it. I'm also just a hobby breeder out of a large walk in closet. So far breeding has 'broken even' enough that I plan to keep doing it.

In the future if I can spend $5000-$10000 on a project that I know has the potential to pay off, I will. (given that most big projects have started to pan out by the time prices get to that point)

I just spent $165 with shipping on a corn. Our local mom-and-pop pet store breeds BP's, and seems to price everything at $100, so that might be likely several months from now. Could be less; I am interested in a pet only, and I like normals.

Definately under $500. One can easily spend that just for the enclosure and the basic equipment. We keep a strict budget, esp. for discretionary items - a $500 plus snake just isn't going to happen.

I've been incredibly lucky in that all my snakes have been under $400 at the time I bought them. Would I pay more? Yeah...I'm to that point in my breeding projects that I may need to for next season.

u got your Tex, your breeding size female Super Black Pastel, for under $400?!!

wow, that's an amazing deal. good on u!

Edit: lol i've been trying to haggle the price of hatchling Super Blacks and Super Cinnys. no one wants to play so far. Lol

I so want one of those camo balls.... Maybe someday..

Spent $550 shipped for my kalatoa retic. It was money I recieved as a gift from when my wife's grandma died. It was to be spent on something fun. Otherwise, I don't think I could have done it.

So far it's $460 for male pied. And that's pushing my limit

$1,300 the most I spent on a single animal . It was a female Ultra Ivory Retic.

Just spent a little over 1k on my new gal

Spent $650 for three...but it was $400 for a pair of Albinos and $250 for a Coral Glow Pastel.

I just got a morph for free!
Um, depending on my income I'd probably spend at most $600-$800 maybe?

The most I've spent is on my wizard ball male Mordecai (pastel orange dream yellow belly) for $750. Worth every penny to me. My budget though is about $1000.

I'm planning to spend $300 plus shipping late this Summer/Fall. Breeder is picked out...just need to coordinate the timing with when funds are available. I tend to spend much more on the enclosure than the animal; not sure if I'm going to go with a fancy planted Exo with this addition, or just do the minimal Sterilite tub.

As a newbie to bp, I'd only go to 500 - because my local breeder is selling a BEL for 500 and I want it :D (Ugh, and he's actually selling two!! Wallet, why)
It's a bit much for me right now, what with being jobless, but I can see myself buying it from him on a payment plan. 300-500 may even be a permanent limit. I don't see myself doing more than keeping pets, so attachment is worth more than genes. My ferrets were 300 each, so I'd like to stay on par with that so I don't feel... excessive



Ask me again in 5 years ;)

I fear this is going to be my end ;)
As a youngster, yeah I bought the crappy "kits" for pets. Older now I know what's better, but I am also a perfectionist and very visual...

100$ animal; 1000$ cage!

(I'm not actually spending 1k, it's an example/joke/dream)

The most expensive was about 350$ i think, lesser pastel genetic stripe. Followed by a 285$ male pied. :)

Second that on caging.. FreedomBreeder 1575, V70 Vision and a 60tub Vision V18 really made a dent in the wallet......

The most i've spent on a BP was $80.00 and thats for my chocolate.I also have an orange dream,super vanilla and normal for free.

It depends on the snake but quite possibly in the future some stupidly high amount - probably spend my holiday money on one and chill at home instead of going somewhere abroad.
