Considering this girl... Opinions please?
First of all she is by far the most expensive pet I've ever considered and I've recently cut right back to one snake too lol.
I was flicking through morph market UK (like ya do haha) and saw her... I love her... I think lol..
£800 sound about right?
I want her as a pet primarily but any idea on what male I could get her for nice offspring, thought maybe yellow belly-orange dream-red axthantic...
She is black head, pastel, red and ringer gene, het red axthantic (add makes it look like het red and ringer which isn't a thing as they are dominant I believe)

Ouch, not sure about that...price seems too high, but, I don't know what the prices are like in the UK. In the USA I wouldn't expect to pay more than $600 for the snake (~£465)

Yeah, he is the only breeder I can find with blackheads for sale and to be fair none I've seen look half as nice as her in my opinion.
It shouldn't matter if I want her in particular I know, just don't want to pay that sort of money to only find out she is a £400 snake like you say.
I've contacted the seller, he is sending some updated pics as she is 400g now.
I do have a small starter Viv ready to go in my garage so housing is sorted for a start.
There is one other snake I really like but it's bit more expensive.

Just keep in mind you have the enclosure as well and if you’re making it for display it adds up. I think I spent close to $1000 on everything for my boa, maybe more.
I’ve since added a large water bowl in the center of the enclosure. I’d take updated pics but my fluorescent fixture stopped working the other day Replacement was only $30. I guess my point is that yes these animals can cost a ton up front but once you have everything the cost is minimal. If you order rats in bulk your spending tops like $12 a month for each snake. Make sure to maul it over and look around. Also contact the seller and ask about shipping if you live in northern states. Some breeders won’t ship below 40 F. Luckily PPI was able to ship my boa warm and happy to northern Minnesota in the middle of January.
Good luck! Just remember to think it over and budget everything out. If you can afford it and still want it pull the trigger

I got them from NE Herp Also got the cork flats and planters there too. I’m working on growing pothos in them. I actually had a new sprout come up today. The cork flats are huge and should work when he’s full grown as well. They’re super light so you don’t have to worry about injury. Also, I haven’t had any mold issues at all. The ghost wood seems significantly more resistant than grape wood.
