    female pastel pricing?
    I found a decent 09 female pastel, who looks to be about 400 grams. What would be a reasonable price for this snake? It usually takes about 2 years to be breeding size, correct?

    whoops, forgot to ask how long it usually takes for the adult browning to be complete? that is, if she was born last june, how much more brown will she be ultimately? Also, I don't have an accurate weight for the snake, would 400grams be a good guess for this age/picture?

    Hi,

    You cannot see the pics - people would need to be logged in to your mailbox to se the attatchments. I would recommend either uploading it to a dedicated pic sharing site or your gallery. :gj:

    You can put them in your gallery here - this tutorial is a bit old but the basic procedure is the same I think.

    And here is another one in video form that might also help.

    You can also use a site like http://photobucket.com/

    They should also have tutorials to help you.

    If you still have trouble just ask any member of staff and we will do our best to get you sorted. :gj:

    As far as price goes, check Kingsnake.com for current pricing, because it changes way too frequently nowadays. Generally they are in the 200 - 400 range depending on breeder and quality.

    yeah, I saw some CHEAP 09s, but they were not snakes I'd really love to have. Also, this is kinda an ambiguous sizing... like halfway to breeding size. as soon as a mod approves my picture, I'll post it up so I can get an idea of what everyone else thinks.

    We shouldn't need to approve your pictures if you upload them into your own gallery....

    You need to check where you uploaded them to.

    Re: female pastel pricing?
    thanks! The weight was just a guess- I have a spider I got at the pomona show that's already over 400 grams, but he was 175 when I got him. I'm not sure his age, but I figured he was younger than this pastel.

    Nice looking Pastel, I prefer a lot of blushing like that girl.
    As for Browning, from what I can see in that picture there will be more browning with age. See everything that doesn't look like clean yellow that is usually what turns brown with age. How dark or light the brown will be will just have to wait and see. She is still young and the browning will progress with age. She is still a pretty pastel, and in my opinion will probably still be nice looking adult (I think Some Brown adults are pretty depending on the shades of brown and the blushing).
    Price: I would guess in the $250 - $300 range currently

    Yea Nice Girl... pastel girls running from 0.5-0.7$ sometimes even 1$ per gram depends on weight, quality and ability to breed....

    thanks for the help guys. :gj: I picked her up just now, for $200. wahoo!!! :rolleye2: can't wait until she makes me a bumble bee... :banana:

    edit: Turns out she weighs about 370g, so I wasn't too far off in my guess. She's quite pretty and has great blushing. pics in a bit after she settles in.
