Male Jungle Ball Python for sale...

Hey guys, I'm new here and I know I have no trust with any of you here from continued posts...but I have to sell my male jungle ball python, and I want him to go to a good home. I figured a ball-python enthusiast website would be the best place to try to sell him. He is about 18-20 inches long and I fee him 2 mice once a week. He eats voraciously and is in good health. If any of you want him, you'll have to tell me how to ship it, because I've never shipped reptiles. I paid 125 dollars for him a few months ago, and I would like to get that out of him, but all reasonable offers will be entertained.

He does have the blue/white spots on the eyes and the speckled mustache...he IS a true jungle.

If you would like to have proof of my reliability, you can look at my ebay replys...my name is matt93lx.

Thank you all for looking!

Is that retained shed on his head and neck? Do you have some better photos, from closer up?

Where are you located? If you're close enough to one of our other members, you might not have to actually ship, might just be able to meet up somewhere convenient.

Wow... good eyes about the shed.

I second 'more photos' and the location.

Where'd he come from? Is it a WC?

Hey guys, I have no idea whats going on with my account, but its not letting me sign back in. I don't think thats a retained shed, he just gets a little darker around his neck.

Here are a few more pics...I should mention I had to spray him down with some vita-spray because he is getting ready to shed...so his colors are a little dull. This was done just to show his true colors:

I am located in Decatur, IN. In the Northwest part of Indiana a little south of Ft wayne. Oh, and hes not wild caught, but I forget the name I of guy I got him from, I was told by someone else that he is pretty well known in the trade though. I'm heading to work, so I won't be able to respond for a few hours.

I know that's right! :laughing:

Good luck finding a new home for him, fish.

ha ha, yeah marla you definitely know how that feels. :P

Hey guys, I hope there is interest for this little guy still. Am I asking a fair price for the snake? Or did I pay too much to begin with?

Please let me know if interested, I am open to suggestions.

how old is he? how much does he weigh? if you paid $125.00 a few months ago, i'd say you paid too much for a little normal male.

if im correct, a jungle is the same as a normal. and that snake is a normal, well, an underweight normal.

This is from the Graziani's website...

http://www.grazianireptiles.com/Normal.htm
Genetics: Wild Type
Normal ball pythons are extremely variable in color and pattern. That is what makes them so appealing. They range from high gold to dull tan markings, jet-black to light brown or burgundy markings. Some are outlined in white, some have connecting dorsal patterns and some have banded markings. That is what normal or “Wild Type” ball pythons look like.

For something to be a mutation it must first be proven genetic and second be extremely different from the norm. There are many normal ball pythons that are sold as genetic mutations. If you are purchasing a ball python that is advertised as a genetic mutation check with a reputable breeder and see if the mutation has been proven. Here is a link to all of the genetic mutations that we here at Graziani Reptiles believe to be proven genetic.


http://www.grazianireptiles.com/Jungle.htm

Genetics: Unknown
Jungle ball pythons are bright yellow, black, and white as juveniles. The top half of the iris is light colored. They have a defined light spot on the top of the head. The upper lip is outlined in black and they have an irregular black pattern. Some adult Jungle balls tend to loose the yellow color and brown out. Our line has maintained its yellow color as an adult.

So is a 'Jungle' considered a 'Normal' because it's not genetically proven? Is it genetically proven? I'm a noob to morphs so my apologies. I've just always been under the impression that it was considered a 'morph'. :oops:

What he said and what it is are two totally different things.

That snake does not exhibit one single characteristic of a classic jungle ball python.

It does look a whole lot like a bush baby though ;-)

oki was wrong...lol i thought jungle and normal were the same things. owell, learn from our mistakes right? :) and i was right bout the normal part:)

Haha... yep... right you were I guess. ;)

I'm all about learning. Sometimes it's just a challenge to find accurate information (or so it seems) when most of the research you do is via the internet; you can never be too sure about things when you're new to something.
