$475 for a pair of 09 albino hognoses? Good? Input is great.

I have a guy around here, $475 for a pair of 3 month old albino hoggies a good deal? Seems really good but I know the prices have been comin down, so just curious...I really don't need to be spending the money but if its a really great deal I'll probably go for it..Thanks.

Jump on that right away, unless its a scam of course. Which if its too good to be true it usually is...

they are usually 300 each.

so go for it? I mean I really don't need to be spending the money but if its that good I will.

can you look at them first or is this an internet deal? if you can see them first then go look at them with money in hand. if its an internet deal......

internet net deal, but guy has a website and I'd be working with paypal.

thats a killer deal. make sure he sends you pics and everything. you sure its not for an albino and a het?

Who's the guy?

Paypal will do NOTHING if an animal transaction goes south.

yeh he verified 2 albinos...I may hold off though, do you guys think within the next year all albino hoggies will really be 450-600 for a pair?

they have been holding that price for a little now. so who knows.

Are they feeding? A few years ago I got a great deal on a het albino hognose. The thing ate for me once, then never ate again. With hognoses you really want to make sure that they're feeding strongly on whatever prey you have the best access to.

I don't think it was that long ago that they were $600+ each. Plus it seems a lot more people have been getting into them lately, so I'm sure there will be a much larger supply of them.

$600 a pair is already the normal price for regular albinos.

for the past 2 seasons, they have seemed to hold at $300 each.

Under my observations, they were a bit higher than that. more like $400-$500, depending on color. I only saw a handful at $300 and they were either extremely low color, or tiny babies that you could tell had not eaten.

You snooze you lose. Big Gunns bought them while you were sitting of your azz asking about them.;):P:D :D
