    KB depends a lot on quality but i'd say $1500-$2000. Hatchling females still go for $800-1000 i believe.

    Super lesser that size i'd say $1200.

    These aren't exact, just my opinion.

    Thanks Mike, this gives me a negotiation point then. The KB has a wobble its very noticeable he said but it hasn't effected her from eating and he said it wont effect her from breeding either.

    I don't want my first clutch to be a bunch of snakes that wobble if I breed the KB to my Pin.

    Looking for some more feedback/advice on the pricing and wobble issue.

    If you have a ball python with the spider gene in it, it will wobble. It's part of the mutation, and isn't really a negotiation point. I guess if it were really bad, maybe, but all spiders wobble. I personally have 12 spiders/combos in my collection (and I have 3 that just hatched in addition to that), and they all wobble to some extent or another.

    If he's warning about wobble I'd be bringing it back up in negotiations.

    I understand that but if I'm going to drop some hard cash on a female that big and he said its noticeable but Ive seen worse.. Gotta love buying off the interweb. :rofl:

    I totally agree, I could find one with out a wobble with that much weight on her for the same price its just if I want to wait for one to come around or not.

    It wouldn't bother me if I bought a baby for 700 and it grew up to have a wobble. Dropping 1400 cash on a medium wobbler to me just seems silly not to try to talk him down on it.

    Bah, its on Frozen to... Never had a snake eat frozen. Is it hard to make a switch to live?

    Just really interested in getting a KB for this season to breed, to hatch out some baby snakes so my two kids can watch and interact with the process. I've had all the materials, Incubator,tubs, ect for 2 years just not the female snakes.

    Frozen is the more difficult, and is more of a selling point than not. Are you completely against feeding frozen? I mean, any snake should take live.

    I highly doubt you'd have issues switching to live, but it's always a possibility. My pin has been on f/t his entire life, however when my cats massacred a bin of rats, he had no qualms about jumping a (mostly) live one. And he went right back to f/t without a hitch. I love that guy lol.

    Well not really I would just like to try and make the switch over less of a mess.

    I know My Pin is a beast to, hasn't turned anything down. Hes been on mice for 2 1/2 years and I made the switch to rats almost 2 weeks ago and he hammers em like hes never going to get another one.

    I asked the guy to rate the wobble/cork screwing from 1-10 and he said it was at 7. To much for me wanting to drop that much cash. Decided to go with something different, it will be shipped on Thursday and at my door Friday morning.

    a Thursday for Friday delivery is risky. most breeders will only ship the beginning of the week. and for good reason. the best thing to do is have it shipped Monday. if not,have the breeder who shipping the snake have it held at the hub and go and pick it up when they open. you would need the tracking number and your drivers license to pick it up.
    I always pickup at the hub, even when shipped on Monday. less stress on a snake that's going to be in your collection.

    I was featured in that video, but I think you're referring to the clip from Ozzy Boids.
