And Yet Another Should I Trade?

hi everyone i been here a couple of time saying that if i should i trade my pied for other snakes. you all have made me keep my pied im not trading him no more sorry about the title. but i was just wondering if this one is good. well a guy from where i live has balls too and knows me and my cousin who has ball pythons to and know what we got. so he offered to trade his 1700 gram female spider for my pied. im not going to but just wondering if it will be good

and also on the side is that i have not showed any pics of my snakes so after i come back from the LA show this weekend will put pics of all my snakes new and old.

Depending on the pieds age, size and if proven that female spider is a good trade for a male pied. I wouldnt hesitate to trade a pied male for a ready to breed female spider

I would definitely do that trade.. But that's just me. :)

Since I don't know the age, nor weight of your Pied, I wouldn't care to venture a suggestion. More information is need on both snakes.

Your male Pied is worth anywhere from $750 or more. But it's true worth is much lower because you don't have anything to bred it to.

The Spider can be worth more than the Pied. If it can be utilized in your breeding program, then you have to consider the trade. If you are not breeding the Spider, I personally would keep the Pied. But this is just my opinion.

I personally wouldn't trade anything for a pied. They're by far my favorite morph, and spiders are one of my least favorites.

Assuming I had no emotional attachment to my hypothetical pied, I'd only think of trading it for a leuci or desert or other really expensive morph(which, let's be honest, probably wouldn't happen), then sell that snake and buy a pair of baby pieds to breed XD.

i too would do that trade - a breedable spider with any other male would make cool combos!! if your interested in breeding, it seems to be a good trade (Depending on the health of the spider..)

it all depends on what you want.

Hi,

You have asked three times if you should trade it - I can only assume you don't like it.

I think you should send it to me so I can love it and hug it and never let it go. :P :gj:

I say take the trade, but breed your pied to the spider before the trade...so you get spiders het for pied. Haha.

i like it but i have nothing to breed it too the het pied i was going to put him with died in a freak accident so i was thinking i least i have something to breed this upcoming season. and im planning to get some normal females and some male morphs like i said this saterday or sunday when i got to the reptile show

I would trade...for the big female, and pick up a male pastel at the show...
you could make bumblebees this season!

That's me though.

yeah i could get one or i can just use me cousins male proven breeder that is also 100% het for albino but im not trying to male bumblebees maybe ill get a lesser or something else wont know till im there but thanks
