Let's hear it for "cheap" combos!

We have a lot of new folks wondering what they can get for a relatively small amount of money. Truth is, if you shop around you can get great quality and genetics for a small amount of cash.

I say, let's post up some great examples of 2 (or more) visual gene combos that cost $500 or less. Singe genes/hets are easier to come by in this range so let's leave those out of this thread.

Please post up pics of YOUR animals!

I have three:

Twilight (Cinny Spotnose) female

$500 is pretty much the going rate for a male.

I agree man. Bees are where it's at. http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/03/20/yga3enyp.jpg

Pewters are another timeless classic.

Another overlooked cheap combo are pastel het red axanthics

Good thread Jinx!

Does she count?
0.1 cinnamon 50% ph pied. She *might* have "two" genes.
http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/03/20/apupuge8.jpg

Otherwise I have all single genes. I plan to make my own combos though I am possibly on the lookout for a two/three gene male...

My additions under $500

spider het hypo -excellent price for a jump start into a fun project!
http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t...ps790cb45a.jpg

Technically he was $500 on the nose, but there was a low white next to him for $400, and he's not a combo, but these guys have dropped a lot in price and are a great addition to any collection!
http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t...ps84cbfcc0.jpg

These are my combos I grabbed for less than $500!

Ok, so here's the thing...I have only knowingly purchased one two gene animal. She was my most expensive purchase thus far. But many people believe my other animals, my "single gene" purchases, are two gene animals...so I'm going to post those as well. Sorry Jinx, if they don't fit in the category properly, but I think it's interesting. I will post the prices I paid as well (hopefully that is alright).

So, I will go from the most expensive, to the least expensive.

First up, is my Lesser Pastel Female - paid $375
http://i381.photobucket.com/albums/o...5/P1020282.jpg

My "Enchi" male - paid $350
http://i381.photobucket.com/albums/o...psb01b9c4e.jpg

"Mojave" male - paid $150
http://i381.photobucket.com/albums/o...5/P1020290.jpg

"Yellow Belly" Female - $135

Rosey those are some drop dead gorgeous snakes!

Thread full of AWESOME. All of these are great looking snakes. I can't stop scrolling through this thread again and again.

i'm so jealous at all the prices you guys are paying for such quality animals :(

i only have one 2 gene morph thats my lemonblast $200

http://i1297.photobucket.com/albums/...ps4bc87b73.jpg

Here's my Spider Mojave male. I think he's an awesome example of one too. Only paid 150$ if you can believe that. Every other one I've seen has cost 400-500$

That is great news. It was the point of starting this thread. Picking up that Twilight girl really made me think about it.

I'm thinking of finding a twilight now. Spotnose combos are by far one of my favorites!

Pastel Lesser male I paid $240

http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y97...psf0f06468.png

I have a late 2012 Pewter male i picked up for $225. He's a beast at eating now, kinda reminds me of my retics...lol

Man, looking at this thread makes me think I am asking way too much for my Vanilla Mojave female. :(

Maybe that's why people look at her but no one has bought her. I hate not knowing how to price my babies. I want them to sell yes, but I also think if I have a higher quality animal than most that should be worth a little bit more. Or a combo you don't see often.

How long should I hold on to a baby that hasn't sold before I consider lowering the price? 4 months? 6 months? 10 months? Never?

Little 0.1 LemonBlast I picked up. I always liked Pinstripes and a 2nd gene never hurts :gj:

That is a great question with no good answer. If you feel she is worth a certain amount and are fine with keeping her if she does not sell, then stick to your guns. Also every couple of hundred grams you put on her makes her more valuable. That is a pretty rare combo, and I paid over $500 for my Fire Spider (which is more common).

You got a steal on that snake. Wow!

Kamikaze, our Super Pastel girl we picked up for $350, no shipping.

Our mean ass Bumblebee girl we got for $250 shipped. (Seriously, the grumpiest snake ever!)

My Mojo Sable 66% hypo picked up with 2 Sable ph girls for $420 shipped.

This is a pic from when he was a baby, but our Lemonblast male, Bacardi, we got last year for $300 shipped.

My Pewter 66% PH Pied girl, for $400 shipped. Pretty sure I got a good deal on her, even if she isn't het, she's a nice high-contrast, clean pewter. And look at that crazy patterning! I'm hoping it means she may have that elusive Pied gene.... And with how well-behaved she is, I'll love her either way! (:
