    There really is no morphs of jungles in the States but I will assume your are talking about a pet quality jungle rather than a high yellow or from very well known lines.
    You may be able to find some jungles for as low as $75 and as high as $300+.
    But remember that you get what you pay for. You may only be interested in a pet jungle now but later you may wish to breed. When this happens, it will have paid to have a gotten a very nice high quality jungle as the babies are easier to sell than the run-of-the-mill jungles.
    Just my 2 cents.

    VPI Babies go from 150ish to 300ish. That is my favorite line.

    I remember the days I sold VPI Jungles for 500 to 700 a baby lol.

    The way I thought of it when I was buying my snake is that I can't own that many 7 ft. pythons (not that I don't want to). JCPs also live a long time, let's guess 20 years, so figure I'm around 22 now, he'll be with me until I'm a little younger than my parents are now

    With that kind of commitment in mind, I decided that money wasn't all that important- average $75 across 20 years of appreciation and it's basically the same as averaging $300 across 20 years.

    Don't worry about the startup cost too much- if that perfect snake is a little too much now, talk to the breeder, put him on a layaway plan.
