axanthic female

hey i purchased a female axanthic and she weighs 1700g right now any idea what they go for??? i know i under paid by alot but im curious what a cost for one is...

Im going to say atleast 1800.

Breeder Axanthic females are definitely worth their weight.

What line? That may also raise or lower value.

pics are a must :D

Pics please

ill have to trya nd post pics up asap and im very happy with her lol she devours large rats like there is no tomorrow beautiful must see in person to believe. i couldnt tell an axanthic alone but when i put her next to a couple normals i saw the axanthic look she is VPI line axanthic female that i gto for a killler killer price and im goign to breed my male and make 100% het for snows
i have a couple pics i can email anyone who can upload them to tinypic or photobucket with a normal

pics r up used my cell phone cam

And it looks like you got ripped off...

See alot of brown on her, plus some yellow. Axanthism is lack of yellow, which she definitely has.

i thought when they get older they have some of the yellow start to show?? i didnt get ripped off i payed a great price

look at the ozzy boids axanthic breeder looks like my female
compare these 2 on 8balls website

http://www.8ballpythons.com/normal.htm
http://www.8ballpythons.com/axanthic.htm

same thing

Axanthic is lack of Yellow.... Compare your 'axanthic' to a normal, they will look similar.

Axanthics dont gain yellow as they get older, but they do brown out. They change from being silver and black to a brownish hue of silver, like in the 8ball picture.

the pics are very similiar to 8 balls my axanthic doesnt look anything like my normals tho i dont see whats the difference the little bit of "yellow" around the neck the 8 balls axanthic has the same thing! in the bottom pics

I think if a reputable breeder sold you her as a axanthic and can proove she is a axanthic then there is no question. If not then your best bet is to get a male vpi axanthic or at least a 100% het and breed them and if you get axanthic babies then you have proven her a axanthic.Of course with a 100 % het male you could still get axanthics if she is a het. Only another axanthic bred to her will proove she is axanthic since you would only get axanthic babies.

What line? axanthics all have their own line where they are not compatible with each other.

VPI, TSK, and Joliff and recently a few wild caught lines, but AFAIK none are compatible with each other.

does anybody have a vpi axanthic male i can borrow for her? lol my plan was to breed my albino to her for 100%het for snows

Prove the line. :gj:

And for reference here is a picture from the other axanthic thread in here right now, its in Eds post. Its a comparison between a normal and the axanthic and you can definitely notice the lack of yellow.

ill try and get pics with a real camera i can tell up close and personal mine looks the same there goes snows and now to prove the line

well your snow project only delayed a year or 2 until can prove out axanthic. I tell you now if you got an axanthic really cheap you got lucky. I also ask the person you got her from if there was any paper work for her that proves she axanthic in writting.

I love that all your snakes are names after pornstars. Gianna Michaels is my fav.

lol i just noticed that !!!!! yeah gianna michaels sexy woman ..!:bow:

She looks like a realy browned out axanthic to me, but I dont know much :P

How much does a decent, not so browned out Axanthic male and female go for?

worth their weight in value babies go for like 600 or so so breeder size prices go up there lol :gj: ill prob keep her and prove her out

Go for it man, the pictures you posted do differ a bit from the "VPI Axanthic" query posted by a previous user.

Anyway good luck with your snake, regardless it is nice.

She could very well be a browned out axanthic, which they tend to do as they age. Breed her, either to a het male or a male axanthic, and hope to prove her out.

My het female was $300 for 300g, and breeder size Axanthics generally go for their weight if not a little more.

If you prove her out and she was cheaper than average congrats!

freaking cell phone cameras suck lol she isnt like these pics but ill end up proving her out one way or another i dont want to sell hereven tho i might have to

If you could use a photo tent it makes most pictures a lot more vibrant with the color. :gj:

She looks Axanthic to me...But better pics would help to be sure.

Actually she looks axanthic to me too, which is one of the reasons that axanthic is not my favorite morph. Many adults really do look very close to normal. However, they do make some very nice combinations.

i agree but for what i paid i couldnt say no to her the owner owns boas and he got her from a ball python breeder who went bankrupt and he tells me he has a vpi axanthic that he think looks like a normal and he gave me a price since he thought it was a normal so i payed a normal price for her but the girl is one of my favs you look at her head and just see no other pigment i love it
