Yes, it's a clown. Quality and value in the eye of the beholder.

Its an average clown, there not really bad examples of them, just normal clowns and reduced. It is not reduced. I think they are going for around 400-500.

Re: is this a clown
Definitely a clown ... As Eric said quality is all about what you as the buyer are looking for ... Some people are more into the pattern some the coloration .... As for pricing the above features come into play for that as well .... As for me ... This clown is nice and bright (which is what I like) the dorsal pattern is not solid but mostly, but that can usually be fixed as long as you select a mate for it that is strong in appearance with it's pattern as to what you are aiming for .... I myself wouldn't think twice and would buy this clown if the price was right

If I were looking for a clown, and liked the looks of that clown, then that would be a good deal in my eyes.

Re: is this a clown
He also said i could add a het clown female for a total of $400 for the pair with free shipping. Or just the clown for $350 shipped. What do you all think

Re: is this a clown
That depends...are you going to breed? If not then just take the male. If so you might consider the het as long as it is 100% I am looking to start a clown project so I bought 2 pastel 100% het clowns. Couple years I should have some nice combos.
Snakes
0.1 Butter
0.1 Het Clown/Ghost
1.1 Pastel 100% Het Clown
1.1 Pied
1.0 Bee
1.0 Fire/Spider
1.0 Normal
1.0 Pastave
1.0 Albino Snow Corn
1.0 Albino Black Pastel

If you are planning to breed, I am going to assume you are or I would see no point in you being concerned with quality as stated in your original post .... And if the female is 100% het then IMO the 400 shipped for both is a great deal. You can normally have a male that size to breeding maturity in a year to a year and a half ... The female "if from the same clutch or if the same size as the male" will take 2 to 3 years to reach a common breeding maturity and size. That being said .... If she is a 100% het then you are looking at being able to produce visual clowns in around 3 years (with the proper feeding schedule and providing she cooperates and does not go on a fast) .... If you get any female other than a het clown or visual clown then you are looking at 5 to 6 years and two successful breeding seasons before you have a "chance" at producing visual clowns, As you will have to breed the male to a non het or non visual in order to get 100% hets and then wait the time for them to mature before breeding a female from those babies back to you male in order to have a "chance" at visual clowns ......... If I have mis spoken someone please correct me as I almost confused my self typing this up lol .... Also I hope I have not further confused anyone reading this
