    really like this snake

    Hello Petland just got a new baby Albino Montly in wow it's a looker but 100.00 is that pretty good? I really want this snake do you think it would breed good to a striped montley sunglow? Only thing is i wont know the sex. Do you think i should get it anyways?

    $100 is WAAY too expensive. I paid $65 for a sunglow motley (that's albino and hypo + motley)

    Your best bet is to get one at a show, then you can have the breeder sex it for you, and you'll pay about half as much.

    I would check fauna and ks for prices to give you an idea or maybe even breeders.... the price may be good, it may be high. But if its from the same pet shop the mite infested boa came from I would not buy from there at all...

    $100.00 sounds steep to me, but I'm used to paying reptile show prices. I got my anery motley for $30 at MARS. When you buy from pet stores, I guess you should figure in the shipping cost the store may have paid. If I were you, I would check online corn breeders and see what they charge (including shipping).

    I know from working in pet shops, that they tend to mark thier stuff WAYYY WAYY up. Example.. the place I worked at, paid no more than $14 each for baby beardies, from a big supplier.... and sells them for $69.99 on sale and normally $79.99.

    They definitely do - and some worse than others. Our local shop buys vivariums from a shop further up country then sell them for double the price.
