    Re: What's the most you've ever spent or would spend on a single bp?

    The most i have spent so far was $600 on my baby Spider BP. Although over the next year, i will be adding the following snakes to my collection, with each costing me around $1000-1500:

    - Male Cinny
    - Male Pinstripe
    - Male Lesser
    - Female Mojave

    As for recessives though, i will most likely buy mating pair's of hets to save cash and simply produce the Homo versions myself.

    Re: What's the most you've ever spent or would spend on a single bp?

    Most I've ever spent on a 'single' ball is around 300, I've spent 700 on a trio of hets that unfortunately went bad during shipping,and my new mark will probably be 8 or 900 once I put some money down for an axanthic from 8ball. but I'd say my cap for probably the next 5yrs is at 2.5k, but It all depends on my job, when I land a better job that cap will move up a bit.

    Re: What's the most you've ever spent or would spend on a single bp?

    I have spent $1,300 on a pair - spider.pastel, $1000 on my male albino, and I'll be sending the balance this week for a $1,050 trio with an adult mojave male. I'm done until NARBC (crap, that's in less than 2 weeks! ), but once I start breeding and making some money back I would spend as much as I could afford for a snake I really wanted.
    What are these mojavas I keep hearing so much about?

    Me too. The best i can afford is usually what i aim for. Sometimes thought it also depends on how badly i want that particular snake. In that case i might spend a little more than i can afford.

    Re: What's the most you've ever spent or would spend on a single bp?

    One of the key pieces of info is when you bought the snake you paid the most $$ for. I bought my first bp (a NERD lemon pastel) several years ago when pastels were around $2500 each. At that time, pins were $20,000, pieds were $15,000, and if I remember correctly, BELs were $100,000. :eek:


    The most I've spent so far is $5000 but if I see a snake that I think would add to my breeding program and I can swing it . . . . well . . . . I'd probably buy it.
