    how much did you pay?
    If everyone doesn't mine me asking, I was wondering how much people spent on their first bp's?

    1st one: I paid $50 bucks for an adult normal male, which came with a 55 gal tank, hot rock, screen lid, and a bag of slightly freezer burned mice.

    I paid $100 for a female normal and I got her at my local stop and die pet store. I know better now and I don't feel so bad because she is female and had some decent size on her when I got her last year. :)

    My very first two were rescues and were free. I didn't know much back then.

    A few years after they were re-homed for aggression, which I now know was my bad care, I spent $450 on a pair of 100% het pieds.

    I'm not going to say how much I've spent since then. If I don't put it in writing, I can pretend it's not much. :P

    80 bucks for my female at a petstore. Another 400 for everything else. I admit it was an impulse buy but she is my favorite and I got her from a really good store. And thanks to everyone here she gave me an awesome clutch and is big and beautiful now.

    My first BP, when I was 7, was an adult female for $100 from a pet shop. Loved that snake, she was a PYTHON! :)

    When I bought my first morph in 2005, it was a $3,100 male Cinnamon Pastel from Ben Siegel...and the foundation of my current collection. Most satisfying and positive investment I've ever made.

    $200 for a male spider female pastel pair. About 15 years ago I did have a pair of normals though which were free. I knew nothing about snakes then though and traded them for a walkman, lol.

    first 3 were free as they were rescues. then i got a free pastel female from a buddy who wanted me to venture out into balls. i was already breeding corns. most ive spent is 600. i dont feel any snake is worth more than that and dont feel the need to spend that much on one either. just wait two years and get it for 75.99 and some chewed gum.

    I spent 125 for a ghost male.

    Then now have a 2011 bumblebee female for 500, and a 2010 bumblebee het ghost for 1250.

    The next thing will be trying to find a pied het ghost, and that'll be pricier.

    If I remember right, we paid $75 eight years ago for a pretty "male" normal that turned out to be a female. We still have her.

    And that's when the trouble started....:D
