Need opinion on a ball python price.

Hi! I'm looking to buy a banana 100% het pied male, I found one for 400$ can ( I'm in quebec) should I go for it or my other option is to wait in march for the montreal reptile expo. What should I do ?! Thanks

depends on how bad you want it. id wait for the show and see if i could find a better deal, hopefully the snake is there afterwards if you dont get anything at the show.

I bought a male banana het pied, 1000g. For $400 usd this year. I thought it was a pretty fair price.

I say wait for the expo. Gives you time to actually make sure if you actually want the banana het pied and also the possibility of getting the snake for cheaper at the expo.

i got a male banana het axhanthic for £295 dont know prices in usa dollers but if you have the spare money and can afford it no problem then i see why not.

Thanks everyone! My boyfriend is set to get the banana now !! His impatient! I guess I really wanted to know if the price was good. I found others but for 500$ so I get a better deal with this one!

Little guy is coming home tonight!

Congrats. Very pretty.
..how old is he? Looks a bit thin and for $400 you should be getting a healthy snake that eats without a problem. Is the breeder someone you know or at least reputable?

I don't personally know, my boyfriend find it on kijiji, the guy as been breeding for 5 years, not so long. But I hope that with my care he will grow big and stong! The breeder told us he was eating f/t rats

It use to be our $0.25 was $0.20 in Canada... Now your up 25 cents!!!
Im sure he will be ok. Keep him (him or her?) away from any other reptiles for a minimum of a month.. Most people go 2-3 months honestly. There are some terrible things (IBD) going around not to mention RI and Mites ect... Make sure to wash your hands before handling any other snakes ect.. And wash anything you use for BOTH Reptiles (snake hooks/Tongs) if they share. As long as yous stick to all the rules you and the new BP should be fine. Let him be alone (no handling) for 5 days then try a feeding. They need to adjust and get stressed and wont eat easily when they go into a new home. You can even cover his enclosue with a towel so its dark and he feels safe. That will help his health. If they stress and wear down their amune system this small its not good at all. Have Fun.

Thanks ! I know how they are that small !! I hava a 114g piebald male that just started eating 3 weeks after we got him...I got him to feed by following the tread about hatchling 101, so now I have the same setup for the new guy so he feel really safe and both tub are cover with a towel!

Awesome :)

I bought a male Coral Glow het pied last year and paid $1,100 USD. He's pretty big now though...

Found out the breeder is brandon from canadian coldblood. His been a breeder of reptile for 15 years.
