    What is a "good price"?
    Green tree's start at around $250-$300 for imports and start at around $300-$500 for CBB. From there, they can command prices from $1000 to over $10,000 for genetics.
    Let me know what you are looking for and I will point you in the right direction, unless you are just looking for the cheapest one you can find; then you are on your own.

    Define "baby". Hatchlings really should not be handled very much and when they are, with extreme caution. Risk of kinking is too high in my opinion (and many others) and it usually doesn't show up until later. There's a huge difference in a 3 month old and a 6 month old in "durability", if you will. That seller has an ok reputation as far as I know, but depending on what you want, you need to make sure you get all the info up front, as he seems to breed, broker, and import.

    600 and down is good for me, I really can't see myself spending over a 1,000 for a snake I think that's just nuts. The kind of tree python I'm looking is the one that has that beautiful yellow coloration to it.

    If you mean a yellow hatchling that's no problem. If you mean one that has the bloodline to retain yellow, they are going to cost at least 800+

    the problem is, you can pay $1k for a snake that is supposed to be yellow and it could turn mostly green... it's a color phase, not a morph.
    i would hit Nick up at Inland Reptile next year if you want a nice pure Kofiau Island GTP.

    There's been plenty of them turn green also.
    I suggest the thread starter do some research. Try moreliaviridis forum or just google it.
    True, a high yellow animal is not a "morph" but it's not a "phase" either. It is more of genetic disposition carried on. Bottom line; you don't buy a chondro hatching and expect it to turn out like some image in your head. If you want something specific and guaranteed, you buy an adult that is at least 3. (biaks' aside, because i've seen them continue to change at 4 years.)

    If your looking for a high yellow or lemon...big bucks! I personally havent seen one under $1500 and if u find one let me know I want one bad.
    Also want a blue frost ...mite phase.....and a calico..all well over $2000.... but one at a time :D

    babies known as neonates - many are born yellow but this is a defense they change which is a beautiful thing to watch and be apart of.

    let me know if u find a lemon for me :gj:
