    Basic/inexpensive solid BP?

    I really love the look of solid morph BPs (super cinny, VPI's patternless, super black pewter) but they are extremely out of my price range. I am not well-versed in the wide-world of BPs, so I was wondering if there are any less expensive solid-colored (or even mostly-solid) morphs out there?
    I am not interested in breeding so the genetics and potential pairings are not important to me. I realize this may seem bizarre, but I'm having trouble finding an online resource that would provide this information.

    Thanks in advance!

    For solid white or close to it a male ivory would probably be the least expensive.

    http://www.worldofballpythons.com/ is the site everyone uses to look at many of different morphs and combination of morphs out there although that site is not the only combinations possible. Now to answer your question, what is your price range? what price is inexpensive to you? Once you provide this information we can be of more help in making suggestions within your budget.

    Ah, sorry, I should have mentioned that. This is to go on my wishlist/saving for list as top priority, so my budget is dependent on what is out there, I guess. I would be very hesitant to spend more than $800, but I am more interested in the 'floor' of the solid BP market, what is the minimum I could expect to pay for this type of morph.
    I've seen www.worldofballpythons.net, but haven't checked it out in earnest, looks like quite a project I am undertaking to find this morph, thanks!

    I personally love cinnamon genetic stripes (they resemble super cinnies) and they tend to go for $500. I've even seen baby blue-eyed leucies go for $500 as well, if those are up your alley.

    Like dillian mentioned the ivory ball is an option. I have seen people selling males and females both at around the $800.00 mark lately but I am sure if you find the right person you could get for less easily.

    I paid $800 for this guy (well, $300 because it was a partial trade). Champagne morphs have been dropping in price and a lot of them turn into solid, or fairly solid colored snakes.

    I don't know if this helps, but check out genetic stripes. They have patternless sides and a nifty stripe on their back. You can pick them up for 400ish for a male. Probly 600 for a female.

    Albino spiders and albino pinstripes look like a solid yellow snake, and you can get one for probably less than $700. They have white lines in them when young, but I think they fill in as they get older (correct me if I'm wrong here)

    Oooh, they're gorgeous, gotta love a snake with racing stripes! Of course, I'm falling in love with the $5,000 lesser platinum pewter genetic stripes. My eyes are much bigger than my bank account, as usual.

    That is one beautiful boy, looks like he has been gold dusted! Honestly, that is probably one of the most solid-looking champagnes I have seen, I guess if I bought sub-adult or adult I'd be able to pick a super solid one.


    Thanks for all the input, everyone! I appreciate the ballpark guesses, because now I'm expecting to shell out around $800. I will have to start saving it up and keep an eye out for chances to snap one up!
