Who did you get him from?

[ceduke]

I got him from a forum member at another site. He was originally produced by Robert Bruce. I was lucky to find him, I noticed that another person in CA had one, sent him a message asking him who he got his from, and he said that the snake was a Robert Bruce animal, and then added that he was moving and needed to find a home for his and by the way would I like him for a great price? What timing!

People were hinting at these guys being expensive, what do they run? Just curious.

Hatchlings run $800 - $1200 ish.

Indigos - both Texas and Eastern - run anywhere from $800 to $1200.

Blacktails/Unicolors are $300 to $400.

Yellowtails are $400 to $500.

Rubidus are about the same as Texans and Easterns.

There is some variance. Some people will charge you more for a linebred animal that has no tail color or for a line bred animal that has enhanced yellow (YT).

Blacktails are mellow, as are Texans and Easterns. Yellowtails can be a bit more high strung.

He's got a bit of red in his mug...............a great price on an indigo is a good thing.

Looking to add a Black tail to my collection after the new year and finish paying off the kids Christmas and the down payment on my wifes new car.

I recently added a 2011 Black Tail to my collection from Gary Kettring. Probably one of the most interesting snakes I have ever kept. It's amazing how quickly they seem to digest their prey. It's also interesting that they can't unhinge their jaw like other snakes. It was their handsome faces that really won me over though.

Their Asian equivalent is also an enjoyable species and while usually very spunky, they are a cheap alternative. King Rats or Stinking Goddesses (Elaphe carinata). I added both to my collection within a month or so of each other. While I'm enjoying both, the cribo seems to have won the spot as my favorite.
