    Stores selling morphs by mistake at reg price

    Anyone ever walk into a pet shop and see a proven morph sitting behind the glass for regular price like in the 40-65.00 range?

    I seen a pastel today. Really wanted to snatch it up but really dont have the room for it.

    I doubt it was a pastel. I don't know of anyone breeding pastels that would mistakenly sell one as a normal. Never say never, but I'd say the odds are slim to none at best.

    Quite the opposite, i see normals as "high yellow", "high gold", "weird pattern" for like 200-250, and most are males.

    pet stores that do not buy normal males from breeders will buy 10-100+ lots of snakes just like some members here do. most are unsorted so there is a chance of getting a CH pastel or CH yellowbelly but agian its playing the odds. it can happen


    if you cant afford to take care of it, dont get it

    There's a couple of pet stores in my area that buy from local breeders. But I never was luckly enough to find any mispriced morphs.

    I think that's everyone's dream, isn't it?

    Walk into a pet store and see a YB or Ghost or whatever for $29.95

    Hmmm biggest mistake I most often see in pet stores is selling a snake as "healthy and eats well" when it's anything but.
