    Best or most budget friendly place to get Pastel Females?
    Does anyone have any suggestions on where to get some Pastel females or anyone who would like to cut me a deal on one?

    bigger name breeders are always going to charge more than smaller no name breeders. there name will sell the snake. your best bet is to go to an expo and look around and make offers and see who bites. If you do not have expos in your area go on kingsnake or fauna. pastels are a dime a dozen now. there are many breeders that you would be able to "get a deal" from.

    Brian at BHB has great snakes at great prices! He doesn't jack up the price because of his name!

    I don't really think it's so much jacking up a price because of a name as much as the market getting undersold by people on kingsnake (or at shows) trying to make a quick buck, and then bigger breeders having to lower prices to match.

    Go to an expo they are more likely to haggle and come down on price

    Unfortunatly, I live in Iowa which means no close expos. In order for me to get to an expo ill spend 50+ dollars in gas which would be worth it but thats a ways away.

    Also you need to think about it as usually the less you spend on a morph the lower quality it is (that has always been my experience at least). So it may be something to think about to save up for a bit and get a really nice pastel.

    I would recommend going to an expo and see the animal for yourself! You will probaly pay $50 for shipping so its no different than gas! I drive an hour to my local expo but I need to see the animal first! Pictures usually don't justify the beauty of the animal!

    That would be tough! If you are going to buy online then I would go to a well known breeder even if you have to pay more because some unknown breeder may be cheap but have poor quality snake or rip you off!

    I'm going to have to disagree with this. Most "unknown breeders" will have quality stock and I seriously doubt that many are going to try to trip you off.
