Hello, Im wondering Around how much pastels are selling for.

Honestly I think it really depends on 1. where your buying it (ie. Craigslist, Kingsnake, or a reputable breeder) 2. The line of pastel (blonde pastel ect.)

I usually have seen males go for $50-$150 and females anywhere from $100-$250

Just my observation. I personally sold a male breeder pastel for $75 as I didn't need him anymore.

i would have to agree it just depends on color size and the seller i paid 200 for a pair you lust have to shop around just remember you get what you pay for.

I couldn't get to Paypal fast enough to pay $300 for this female. I didn't even give it a second thought.



This is her most recent photo. I'd pay that price (and more) if I had to make the decision again.




My point is, you can get an average pastel for a relatively inexpensive price. But if you want the show stoppers in your collection and for selective breeding, you have to be willing to pay more for them.

you have to take into consideration color size and at times breeder line but most pastels ive seen for males are 150 and females 200...of course now that you see pastels het pied and so on that just kicks their prices way up there and the more het in them the more it cost

Pastels are one of those snakes that have a huge variety in color, darkness, and pattern. If I was looking for a pet I'd go with the individual snakes temperament. If I wanted to breed than I would have no problem dropping the $300.00 that rabernet spent on that HOT female.

There are several lines of pastels that different breeders came out with. I personally would like to get a lemon pastel from NERD.

I would go to a show and shop around if one were in your area. I remember picking up some blonde pastel females for 125.00 in 2008 and they were lookers for sure. I have had bells, blondes, lemons, and graziani line and from what i've seen the graziani and blonde pastels do not brown out as much with age. however the lemons are usually very extreme as hatchlings.

The few blonds I've seen in person have been amazing! I think they actually get better with age.
