    I think I want to get one in September And I will pay more for best one I can get.
    So in your opinion what makes one better then the other.

    Look at ALL of them! I would go for the best pattern (upto you), most bright yellow and clean (no dark scales), and a good amount of white! The white will really pop once the snake gets older ! I haven't seen a great bee in person at an expo for years!

    Bright yellow, no/very few spots, no "dirty" flecking, high white sides...

    It is hard to find a REALLLY nice Bumblebee. I would look more for a well started one so you can really see the how the color is coming in (or browning out).

    You will pay more for a really nice one.

    I prefer a reduced pattern Bee, when I bought my Lesserbee, I got him based on high whites, and a reduced pattern. I'd buy one with some age as Jinx said, just to see how brown he's getting. Look for wobble too, not that it matters to some people, but to me it does. Make sure you stick with quality, and not a cheaper price. Garbage in, Garbage out.

    Like this but with less brown...she's over 900 grams so she's not aging too badly...

    I haven't seen any really nice bees for sale around here. Kyle they seem to be going for $350-$400 for a male right now, but that will be for a fairly browned out one. I think the really nice ones are being kept as hold backs. Check Reptiles Canada.
